Summary
The council and regional officials presented a proclamation recognizing City Manager Jeff Maltby’s 25 years of service; speakers credited him with stabilizing city finances, fostering public–private partnerships and building a long‑tenured staff.
San Carlos — The City Council and regional officials on Jan. 12 recognized City Manager Jeff Maltby upon his retirement, presenting a proclamation and offering remarks that credited him with guiding the city through budget crises and major projects over more than two decades.
Nick Lockrey, representing the congressman’s office, called Maltby’s service “a shining star along the Peninsula,” and Supervisor Ray Mueller presented a Board of Supervisors resolution honoring Maltby’s leadership and role in returning the city to strong financial health.
Councilmembers recounted examples of Maltby’s tenure, including restructuring public safety services, expanding affordable housing and launching public–private projects such as Wheeler Plaza. Councilmember Layton said those who work in local government measure success by steady leadership and long‑term results; Councilmember Dugan and McDowell praised Maltby for building a capable, stable staff.
Maltby, speaking to the council and audience, described his remarks as an expression of gratitude and emphasized his appreciation for staff, council and the community. “I wanna just simply express my gratitude,” he said, reflecting on a career of public service and noting the partnerships that sustained city work through crises.
The meeting included congratulatory public comments from David Berruto (on behalf of Assemblymember Diane Papan and Senator Josh Becker) and Jennifer Fuentes of the San Carlos School District, who thanked Maltby for his collaboration with schools.
No formal council action was required for the recognition; the item was ceremonial. The council moved on to routine items and the regular agenda after presenting the proclamation.
