Goodland mayor says he will move to Garden City; commission enters executive session
Summary
The mayor told the commission he and his wife will move to Garden City and that his term on the commission will end at year‑end; the commission then entered an executive session under KSA 75‑4319(b)(1) for personnel matters.
Near the end of the Oct. 21 meeting the mayor announced he and his wife have decided to move to Garden City and that his term on the City Commission will end at the end of this year. "Me and my wife had made one of those decisions, and we are going to be moving to Garden City. So with that, the end of this year will be the end of my term on this city commission," he said.
Following the announcement, the mayor moved to enter executive session under KSA 75‑4319(b)(1) concerning non‑elected personnel, asking the commissioners and the city manager to attend for 10 minutes; Commissioner Howard seconded and the motion carried. After returning to open session the commission adjourned by unanimous vote.
Next steps: the mayor did not provide additional details about succession or timing beyond saying his term ends at year‑end; the commission moved to executive session and then adjourned.
