Council authorizes mayor and town attorney to begin negotiations on town manager's employment
Summary
Council voted to authorize the town attorney and mayor to initiate negotiations concerning the town manager's terms of service, separation and possible severance; the motion, moved by Tim and seconded, carried by voice vote.
Council considered a personnel matter regarding the town manager and moved to authorize the town attorney and the mayor to initiate or conduct negotiations related to terms of service, separation and possible severance.
Councilmember Tim moved the authorization; the motion was seconded and, after brief discussion about performance review timelines and a need for an opportunity to improve, the council voted the motion to carry by voice vote. A council member asked for time for the manager to demonstrate improvements; others said negotiations were appropriate at this stage.
The motion grants the town attorney and the mayor authority to negotiate potential terms but does not by itself terminate employment; council did not disclose specific settlement terms during the meeting and directed further work to the attorney and mayor.
