City commission approves consent agenda, adopts two resolutions and marks city manager's retirement

The City Commission met in combined committee and regular session and approved its consent agenda, adopted two resolutions and recognized City Manager Daryl on his retirement.

The commission approved expenditures listed in the meeting packet — cited in the discussion as $413,522.40 (a later readback in the meeting said $413,552.40) — and the summary terms of a city manager agreement that the chair said had been reviewed by the city attorney. The consent agenda motion was recorded as “Motion by Roxanne, support by Steve,” and passed by voice vote.

The commission then adopted Resolution 26‑793, accepting the delinquent personal property tax list for 2020 and authorizing a signature waiver and consent to strike petitions. Staff stated the total amount on the delinquent list was $1,600 and noted the list has shrunk from several dozen parcels in earlier years to under 20. “That list keeps getting smaller and smaller every year,” a staff member said.

Commissioners also approved Resolution 26‑794, addressing committee appointment amendments. Each resolution was moved and passed by voice vote; recorded roll‑call tallies were not read aloud and individual recorded votes were not provided in the transcript.

There were no public comments on agenda items.

Commissioners and staff spent a portion of the meeting sharing committee updates and recognizing City Manager Daryl. Commissioner Babcock praised him and thanked him for his service: “Grateful for everything that Daryl has done for our community the last several years.” Daryl thanked the commission and staff, reflected on his time with the city (12 years as city manager and 10 years prior), and said he expects the incoming leader to “hit the ground running.”

The meeting concluded with a motion to adjourn; the commission set its next meeting for March 9.
