Guadalupe extends Public Safety Director Michael Cash's contract three years
Summary
The council approved an employment agreement extension for Director of Public Safety Michael Cash, retroactive to Oct. 9, with a three-year term through Oct. 8, 2028, and annual 5% increases thereafter with satisfactory performance.
The Guadalupe City Council on Oct. 28 approved a three-year employment agreement extension for Director of Public Safety Michael Cash, covering Oct. 9, 2025, through Oct. 8, 2028, with a retroactive base salary adjustment and annual 5% increases contingent on satisfactory performance.
Staff said there are no other changes to the contract terms; the position remains at-will and benefits align with other sworn personnel. Council members questioned contract language about administrative leave and severance, noting that administrative leave paid at severance could differ depending on whether termination was voluntary or council-initiated. Staff explained the provision likely reflected severance scenarios when the city terminates an employee before contract end.
A motion to approve the employment agreement passed; council voiced unanimous support during the vote. Roll call recorded the affirmative votes of the council members present and one or more second motions prior to the vote.
