Virgin council approves employment agreement with Mark Myers for town manager
Summary
At a June 17 meeting, the Virgin Town Council approved an employment agreement with Mark Myers to serve as town manager and authorized the mayor to sign the contract after agreed edits to bonding and disability insurance provisions.
The Virgin Town Council on June 17 approved an employment agreement between the town and Mark Myers to serve as the town's manager and authorized the mayor to sign the contract, after the council accepted two edits to the agreement.
Council members said the edits addressed bonding and the disability-insurance segment of the contract; one speaker referred to a change in the payment model of about $408. The presiding officer moved to approve the agreement and a second was recorded.
The vote was taken by roll call. Councilmember April voted yes; Councilmember Paul voted yes; Councilmember Arman voted yes; Councilmember Misty voted no; Councilmember Valerie voted yes. A majority vote carried the motion and the mayor was authorized to sign the employment agreement.
Councilmember Misty said her vote was not a personal objection to Mark Myers and added, "I'm saying no because I still feel like we should not have a email manager," expressing a policy concern rather than opposition to the individual. No other formal amendments to the contract text were recorded on the public transcript.
The agreement and authorization to execute move the appointment process forward; the council did not record further details about the employment start date, salary, or full contract text in the portion of the transcript provided.
The council immediately moved on to other agenda items after the vote, including budget resolutions and an appeal settlement agreement.
