Santa Fe Springs council reports city manager performance review in closed session; no final action taken
Summary
The Santa Fe Springs City Council met in closed session to conduct a performance evaluation of the city manager. According to the city attorney, feedback was given but no final action or decision was made during the closed session.
The Santa Fe Springs City Council met in closed session to conduct a performance evaluation of the city manager, the city attorney reported when the council reconvened. "Feedback was provided, but no final action was taken in closed session," the city attorney said.
The council had announced the closed session item at the start of the meeting under authority of Government Code section 54957(b)(1), which allows closed-session discussion of public-employee evaluations. The city attorney read the closed-session item aloud before the council recessed into closed session.
After the closed session the council returned to open session and the city attorney reported only that the evaluation had been completed and that council members provided feedback; no motions, votes, or formal personnel actions were reported publicly. The report did not specify the substance of the feedback or any timeline for follow-up.
Because council members took no formal action in closed session, any personnel changes or direction would have to be announced in a future open meeting if and when council decides to act.
