Council authorizes staff to negotiate with second‑ranked candidate for city attorney
Summary
After its top city attorney finalist declined to negotiate, the Titusville City Council instructed staff to open negotiations with the second‑ranked candidate rather than immediately restarting a full search.
Titusville City Council members voted July 19 to authorize staff to begin negotiations with the council’s second‑ranked candidate for city attorney after the top candidate declined to pursue the position.
