Wimberley council approves 3% raise and one‑year extension for City Administrator Tim Patek

WIMBERLEY, Texas — After an executive session on personnel matters, the Wimberley City Council voted Sept. 4 to accept the contract for City Administrator Tim Patek that includes a 3% salary increase and adds one year to his contract term.

The council convened the closed session under Texas Government Code §551.074 to conduct the annual salary and performance review of the city administrator. After returning to open session, a councilmember moved to accept the contract “as presented with a 3% raise for the city manager and an additional year, added to the term of said contract.” The motion was seconded and passed unanimously.

The vote recorded by the clerk was 4‑0 in favor. The council did not provide additional contract terms in open session; the motion accepted the contract language presented in executive session.

The action follows the statutory process for handling personnel matters in closed session; the council announced the vote result in open session immediately after the meeting reconvened.
