Loudoun City Council and Utility Board appoint Kevin Goins as city manager, approve contract and swear him in
Summary
In a special joint meeting, the Loudoun City Council passed a resolution appointing Kevin Goins as city manager and the Utility Board approved his employment contract as general manager; Goins was sworn in immediately afterward.
Loudoun City — In a special joint meeting called at 5:30 p.m., the Loudoun City Council passed a resolution appointing Kevin Goins as city manager and the Utility Board authorized his employment contract as general manager, after which Goins was sworn into office.
The presiding officer said the resolution to appoint "Kevin Goins as city manager" was moved and seconded; after no questions or discussion were raised, the council voted in favor with no opposition recorded. The presiding officer then turned the meeting over to the Utility Board for its separate action on the employment contract.
Chairman Campbell told members the contract had been circulated (a board member said it was sent the prior Friday), and the Utility Board moved and seconded authorization of the contract. The board chair called for a vote; members answered "aye" and the chair stated the motion passed unanimously among those voting.
After the approvals, council members thanked Attorney Chris Fry for his work on preparing the paperwork. The new manager introduced his family, and the meeting recessed briefly so an official swearing-in could take place. Kevin affirmed the oath to support the constitutions of the United States and the State of Tennessee and to uphold the city charter and ordinances, and to "faithfully discharge the duties of the office of manager of the city of Loudoun." Council members offered congratulations following the oath.
No mover or seconder was named on the public record in the transcript, and specific vote tallies were not recorded beyond members saying "aye" and the chair's statement that the Utility Board vote passed "100%." The meeting concluded with a brief adjournment to allow for photos and the formal swearing-in.
What happens next: The city will proceed with the onboarding and formal start date and contract administration consistent with the approved contract; the transcript indicates the contract copy had been circulated to members in advance but does not specify the contract's effective date or financial terms.
