Council approves job‑description updates, interim CDC co‑directors and amends city manager contract
Summary
The Everman City Council approved resolutions updating job descriptions for the city manager and chief of police, authorized interim co‑executive directors for the Everman Community Development Corporation, and in executive session approved an amended and restated city manager employment agreement.
At its April 22 meeting the Everman City Council approved several administrative and personnel resolutions and took action in executive session to authorize an amended and restated city manager employment agreement.
Resolutions approved on the open agenda included updates to the job descriptions for the city manager and the chief of police and a resolution authorizing the city manager and assistant city manager to serve as interim co‑executive directors for the Everman Community Development Corporation (CDC) until a formal interlocal agreement is finalized and executed.
- Resolution 2025-05-42: Updated job description for city manager — approved by council. - Resolution 2025-04-03: Updated job description for chief of police — approved by council. - Resolution 2025-04-04: Authorize city manager and assistant city manager to serve as interim co‑executive directors for the Everman CDC pending a final interlocal agreement — approved by council. Council discussion noted the city and the CDC have historically included administrative transfer costs in their respective budgets but lacked a formal interlocal agreement to allocate personnel costs; staff said the CDC will review the draft agreement before it returns to council for final consideration.
Following an executive session concerning personnel under Texas Government Code Section 551.074, the council returned to open session and voted to approve an amended and restated city manager employment agreement and authorized the mayor to sign the document.
Vote summaries (as recorded in meeting): - Resolution — city manager job description: Motion carried (vote recorded as carried by the council; tallies not specified in the public minutes). - Resolution — chief of police job description: Poll recorded in the meeting shows all present council members voting Aye; motion carried. - Resolution — interim co‑executive directors for CDC: Recorded as unanimous Aye; motion carried. - Executive session motion — amended and restated city manager employment agreement: Recorded as unanimous Aye; motion carried.
Councilmembers did not provide additional amendments to the job descriptions at the meeting.

The council also asked staff to distribute the early‑voting schedule and polling information for upcoming elections.
No fiscal specifics (salaries, contract amounts, effective dates) beyond the resolutions themselves were recorded in the public hearing minutes; the job descriptions and interlocal draft will be provided to council and brought back for final consideration as appropriate.
