Clearlake — The City Council approved an employment services agreement to make acting Chief Timothy Hobbs the permanent Police Chief.
City staff presented the proposed agreement: an initial three‑year term with a base annual salary described by staff as "just over $155,000," a 10% increase over the prior incumbent's salary, and additional 5% incentives for completion of a bachelor’s degree and 5% for completion of an executive post certificate, plus other benefits consistent with the management benefits plan.
After a brief opportunity for comment and no public opposition, Councilmember Slooton moved to approve the agreement; the motion was seconded and passed unanimously. Council discussed scheduling a formal swearing-in later in the month.
"Congratulations, Tim," council members said after the vote. The council asked staff to proceed with administrative steps for onboarding and the swearing-in ceremony.
