The City of Chino Hills has selected Hue Quach as its new assistant city manager. Mr. Quach will step into the role effective April 20, to fill the vacancy created after the previous assistant city manager, Rod Hill, was appointed to city manager. Mr. Quach brings more than 30 years of experience in municipal finance and executive leadership to the role. He will oversee the Code Enforcement, Human Resources, Information Technology and Solid Waste Divisions here at the City, as well as risk management and the contracts for animal care and control and law enforcement services.
“Hue brings a strong background in municipal finance, human resources and risk management, and we are excited to welcome him to the Chino Hills executive team,” said City Manager Rod Hill. “As assistant city manager, his experience and leadership will be instrumental in helping guide the City through upcoming financial challenges and identifying long-term fiscal-sustainability solutions so we can continue delivering high-quality services to our community.”
Mr. Quach spent 15 years of his career with the City of Arcadia as the director of administrative services, where he oversaw Finance, Human Resources, Information Technology, Purchasing and Risk Management, and was responsible for preparing and managing the City’s $130 million operating and capital budgets. During his time in Arcadia until 2023, he ensured the City remained financially responsible by maintaining consistent budget surpluses and played a key leadership role in ensuring the City grew its General Fund reserves under his leadership. He also played a key role in helping to educate the community on a successful local transaction and use tax measure to support community priorities.
Most recently in October 2025, Mr. Quach served as the interim finance director for the City of Sierra Madre, where he led the development of the City’s fiscal policies and ensured fiscal stability during a critical leadership transition. Prior to that role, he spent over a year as a finance consultant for the City of South Pasadena, where he was brought on to stabilize financial operations during a period of staffing vacancies. He oversaw all financial functions, strengthened internal controls, ensured compliance with reporting requirements, and helped align the City’s financial resources with community priorities. He also has prior roles as director of finance with the City of Norwalk and as assistant director of finance with the City of Bellflower.
“I’m honored to join the City of Chino Hills and work alongside the City Council, staff and community,” said Assistant City Manager Hue Quach. “I look forward to building positive new connections with residents and helping the City navigate its financial challenges to ensure resources are aligned with the community’s priorities and preserve the high quality of life that makes Chino Hills such a special place.”
Mr. Quach holds a Master of Public Administration and a Bachelor of Science Degree in Business Administration (Finance), both from California State University, Los Angeles. He is fluent in Cantonese and Vietnamese. Outside of work, he and his wife, Napah, remain actively involved in local volunteer efforts, including through a mosque his family operates, where he enjoys supporting community gatherings and activities. He also has a great appreciation for travel and feels fortunate to have explored different parts of the world, with Thailand being a particularly memorable destination. He enjoys maintaining an active lifestyle and, when time permits, participates in friendly pickleball games with friends.
