Final Meeting for City Manager Donoghue Tuesday night was City Manager Eileen Donoghue’s last city council meeting as city manager. Her contract ends on Monday, April 11, 2022, and the next council meeting is the following evening. The council voted to have City Clerk Michael Geary serve as acting city manager until Tom Golden takes office.
Thanks for this insightful recap of the what was a fairly momentous week. I wonder how the CC will deal with the outgoing Manager’s observations about budget, and ramping up DPW services. While I agree with Councilor Gitschier that developing standard questions is a general HR practice, certainly the CC set aside Ms Faruque’s recommendations for a slower, more deliberative process that considered longevity in hiring the next CM.
