Marysville City Manager Randy Fernandez has been named the 2018 St. Clair County Community College Alumnus of the Year. Fernandez said, “SC4 played a big part in my life and helped him prepare for his career serving the community.” Not only did he attend the college but so did his five siblings, two sons, and even four nephews. The State of Michigan’s first Hispanic city manager, Fernandez has spent the last seven years with the City of Marysville — nearly five as city manager — and was previously employed for more than 28 years with the City of Port Huron. While in Port Huron he served as the city treasurer, water supervisor and city assessor. For a time, he was also director of Port Huron’s Downtown Development Authority and general manager of McMorran Auditorium. The Port Huron native graduated from Port Huron Central as class vice president in 1974 before attending SC4 on a partial tennis scholarship and earning his associate degree. He then went on to earn his bachelor’s from the University of Michigan and master’s from Central Michigan University.
