3 council members approved Greg Wood to offer the city manager position with final contingencies to be negotiated.
Councilman Danny Wyatt abstained from voting saying he wanted an additional face to face meeting before deciding.
Council also approved a 2 year contract with a 6 month buyout provision for severance if not fired for cause. Offer is also contingent on a good background check.
Additional decisions discussed including making an offer of $80,000 starting salary with 10% raise in 6 months and council approval. Also a $2500 moving allowance.
The motion was approved with 4 ayes.
Council will meet in the future as needed to follow up on the decision.
Here is a novel idea. Save the taxpayers 80+ thousand a year and make the mayor do his job.
ReplyDeleteThe mayor only is a part time position and Crossville operates as a council/manager type of government that requires a full time city manager.
