After returning from executive session on May 13, the Coppell City Council voted to retain the city manager under his existing engagement contract and approved a 6% increase in his base salary, continuing the other compensation and benefits as described in his contract.
A council member moved to retain the city manager with a 6% raise; the motion was seconded by Mayor Pro Tem Don Carroll.

The motion passed by unanimous voice vote; the clerk announced the roll as recorded: "Walker, Hinoza Smith, Carol Nevers, Prem Kumar, Matthew Hill in favor. None opposed. Motion carries."
