Interim City Manager Gus Vina received mixed signals from the City Council Tuesday night as it unanimously voted to extend his interim status until the end of June and to hire a recruiting firm in a national search for the permanent position.
City Council members agreed to pay up to $27,650 to the recruiting firm.
Meanwhile, Interim City Manager Gus Vina confirmed in a text message to The Sacramento Press on Tuesday night that he will compete for the permanent city manager position in the national search. The council decided in a split vote not to promote him last month.
At Tuesday’s council meeting, the city’s elected officials chose to hire Sacramento-based CPS Human Resource Services to manage the nationwide city manager search. The company will charge fees up to $27,650, according to a city staff report. The total fees may turn out to be a little less than that amount – a representative from CPS told the council the fees would be about $25,000.
