Council renews city administrator's contract after annual review (average score 3.475)
Summary
Following an annual review across ten performance categories, the council renewed City Administrator Josh Tesla's contract for another year; Tesla's average score from the reviewing council members was 3.475, recorded as 'meets council expectation.'
The New Prague City Council completed its annual review of City Administrator Josh Tesla and renewed his contract for another year after council members who participated in the evaluation gave him an average score of 3.475, a rating described during the meeting as "meets council expectation." One councilor who joined midyear did not participate in the review because they had not worked with Tesla for the full evaluation period.
Scope of review: Council members evaluated the administrator across ten categories including supervision, leadership, policy execution, community relations, administrative duties, economic development, intergovernment relations, council relations, planning and financial management.
Outcome and council comment: The mayor thanked Tesla for his work and said the council looks forward to continuing development for the city. No changes to compensation or role were announced in the meeting record; the council renewed the administrator's contract for one additional year based on the review results.
Next steps: The council will continue routine oversight and coordination with the administrator, and staff flagged a forthcoming compensation study meeting in the next four to six weeks to discuss possible recommendations affecting long‑term staffing compensation strategy.
