Sean Crumby is Irvine’s New City Manager

Irvine has a new City Manager. On October 28th, the City Council unanimously approved the hiring of Sean Crumby, who has more than three decades of executive leadership experience in municipal government.

Mr. Crumby had been serving as interim City Manager after Irvine’s former City Manager Oliver Chi accepted a position in Santa Monica.

A registered Civil Engineer, Crumby was brought in by Chi in April 2023 to serve as the City’s first Director of Project Delivery & Sustainability, where he was responsible for managing and implementing hundreds of millions of dollars in projects annually.

In December 2024, Mr. Crumby was promoted to Assistant City Manager where he has led the development of the Great Park while continuing to oversee the City’s public works, transportation, and sustainability operations.

Groundbreaking Ceremony for the Flying Leatherneck Aviation Museum

On October 28th, the Flying Leatherneck Historical Foundation, in partnership with the City of Irvine, held a groundbreaking ceremony for the new Flying Leatherneck Aviation Museum, which is being built at the Great Park.

The now-under-construction 131,000 square-foot aviation museum — located on the former Marine Corps Air Station El Toro (MCAS El Toro) — is set to open in spring 2027.

The museum will include a collection of more than 40 restored aircraft and many related artifacts — representing over eight decades of Marine Corps aviation, from World War II to the present.

It will also feature stories of aviators, veterans, and civilians whose lives intersected with MCAS El Toro. In addition, the facility will offer STEM (Science Technology Engineering and Mathematics) programs for local students. And a research library will be built — featuring books, photos, and materials related to Marine Corps aviation and its history.
