The Dunes City Council returned from a closed executive session on Dec. 4 and moved to extend Senior Administrator Lila Timmons’s contract for one year with a 5% salary increase. Chair (S1) made the motion and a councilmember seconded it; the measure passed on a unanimous voice vote.
The motion followed a six-month performance review conducted in executive session pursuant to Oregon public‑meeting law. After the session, S1 said on the record, “I’m gonna motion to extend your contract for a year and give you a 5% increase of your salary,” and later confirmed the decision as unanimous. No additional details on salary amounts or implementation dates were provided on the record. The council stated that no formal action was taken during the executive session itself and that the extension was announced in open session.
The council cited the statutory notice and legal basis for the closed session during the meeting. Next procedural steps—such as contract paperwork, effective date, and any public posting—were not specified and were left to staff to complete.
