Wagoner council appoints Whitley Crow as development services director
Summary
The Wagoner council voted Jan. 5 to hire Whitley Crow as development services director at $70,000 a year with a six‑month probation and a condition that Crow complete a coding class before receiving a raise; appointment effective Jan. 12.
The Wagoner City Council on Jan. 5 voted to appoint Whitley Crow as the city’s development services director at an annual salary of $70,000, with a six‑month probationary period and a condition that Crow not be eligible for a raise until completing a coding class. "Make that motion to approve Whitley Crow as development services director at $70,000 a year," said an unidentified council member who moved the appointment.
Council members confirmed the effective date as Jan. 12 during the motion. The council took a roll call after a second and recorded a majority of yes votes; one vote was recorded as no. No further discussion on duties or the hiring process was entered into the record at the meeting.
The appointment followed the council’s executive session earlier in the evening. The council did not specify in the meeting packet or on the record the precise scope of Crow’s responsibilities beyond the title, nor did it provide details about the coding course or the timeline to demonstrate completion. The council may return to personnel matters in later meetings if additional conditions or compensation actions are proposed.
The council adjourned shortly after other routine agenda items and called the Wagoner Public Works Authority meeting into session, where several project payments and personnel items were repeated under that authority’s business.
