An unnamed candidate has verbally accepted an offer to become the next administrator in Roanoke County. The person has only been identified so far as candidate number 6, and he is from out of the area. He asked officials to not release his name until he tells his current employer his decision to take the position. Board Chairman Joe McNamara said he believes they made the right decision. He also said candidate number 6 will move the county forward. McNamara is expected to introduce the candidate at a news conference today at 3 p.m.
