Commission adds request to hear study on city manager vs full‑time mayor
Summary
Commissioner Longoria requested and secured placement of a study on whether Stafford should hire a city manager, appoint a city administrator, or elevate the mayor to a full‑time salaried role; commissioners asked him to submit the study in writing for inclusion with the recommendation packet.
Commissioner Longoria requested a future agenda item to present a four‑page study weighing three options: hiring a city manager, appointing a city administrator, or making the mayor a full‑time paid position. Commissioners agreed Longoria may submit the study in writing and asked staff to include it among the materials circulated before the next meeting.
Longoria said the study was produced in response to business‑community concerns that more executive capacity is needed in the city; he said the material is intended to provide justifications in case council or the public request more detail when the commission forwards recommendations. Commission members urged him to forward the written study to staff ahead of the May 21 meeting so it can be attached to the package the commission will send to council.
