City manager says they plan to retire and states "I am running" during meeting
Summary
The person identified in the transcript as the city manager said they plan to retire and stated "I am running" when asked about staying on; the transcript does not specify the office or post for which they are running.
During the meeting, the person identified in the transcript as the city manager said they had been asked in a workshop whether they were interested in staying on as city manager. The manager said they plan to retire and added, "I am running." The transcript does not specify what office or position the manager was referring to by "running."
The comment followed a brief discussion of workshop follow-ups and other agenda items. The manager said the total was "8 hour total" in the same turn, but the broader context for that timing was not clarified in the transcript.
Why this matters: A city manager's retirement affects city leadership and can prompt interim staffing or recruitment decisions. The manager's statement that they are "running" is ambiguous in the record and was not clarified during the meeting.
Next steps recorded in the transcript: the meeting continued with reports and later entered a closed session; the transcript includes no further clarification about the manager's plans or any formal personnel action.
