Parlier council votes 5-0 to terminate city manager effective April 22, 2024
The Parlier City Council announced on April 18 that it voted 5-0 in closed session to terminate the city manager's employment agreement effective April 22, 2024.

Neil, the staff member who reported the closed-session result, told the council and public: “The council voted in closed session 5 0 to terminate the employment agreement of the city city manager effective 04/22/2024.” The vote was reported immediately after the council returned from closed session.

City staff had listed multiple closed-session items beforehand, including two pending litigation matters (Garza v. City of Parlier and Torres v. City of Parlier), a public employment item for the finance director, and a public employee discipline/dismissal or release matter. The council recessed into closed session with no members of the public addressing those items before the closed session began.

The council did not provide additional detail on severance, replacement, or next steps at the time the vote was announced. The public record for this meeting lists the termination as effective April 22, 2024. The council adjourned following the announcement.
