Council gives city manager direction to review events coordinator's contract after member requests termination
Summary
During the regular meeting a council member asked the city manager to pursue termination of the events coordinator's contract; city manager Devon Granberry said he would consult staff and the city attorney and return with options after confirming that a majority of council directed him to do so.
During public agenda discussion on Dec. 8, a council member asked the city manager to pursue termination of the events coordinator (Jean Ray)'s contract. Council members signaled support by voice or head nods and the city manager, Devon Granberry, said he would take the direction under consideration and consult staff and the city attorney.
Granberry told council he would "have a discussion with staff. I will have a discussion with the city attorney and then be able to come back to the council at a future meeting and have an agenda item to bring forward recommendations," and asked council members to confirm a majority wanted him to proceed. Council indicated a majority did so; Granberry said he would return with options.
The request came during the presentation of Sheridan Celebrates events, which Jean Ray coordinates. Council did not vote on termination that night; the manager described the next step as an administrative review and potential agenda item for a future meeting.
The meeting record does not show a formal motion or vote to terminate; it records only the council member's request, the manager's acceptance to investigate, and the manager's pledge to consult the city attorney and bring recommendations back to the council.
