Mena Assumes Role as Assistant City Clerk

The city of Beverly Hills has welcomed Maribel Mena as its new Assistant City Clerk.  Mena brings more than 20 years of combined leadership, public records and records management experience to Beverly Hills City Hall. 

“I am very pleased to welcome Maribel to the City Clerk’s Office,” said Beverly Hills City Clerk Huma Ahmed.  “In her new role, she will lead the development and implementation of a new Citywide Records Management program along with providing support in City Clerk operations. I am confident her impressive experience in public records processing will be of tremendous benefit to our office and the community.”

Mena most recently served as an Associate Director with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) in the Privacy, Governmental, Liaison and Disclosure (PGLD) division, where she led national Disclosure and Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) programs—the federal counterpart to the California Public Records Act (CPRA). She oversaw a nationwide team responsible for managing the IRS’s official FOIA records program and portal. Her experience also includes transitioning paper-based and electronic archives to fully automated workflows. 

She assumed her new role on Dec. 15.
