At the very beginning of this exchange, the Town Manager of Mineral, Virginia says something experienced managers immediately recognize: “For whatever reason, if you want to let me go, I have a contract. It’s fine.” That wasn’t defiance. That was understanding the profession. Public administrators serve at the pleasure of elected officials. They all know that they can be terminated — sometimes for performance, sometimes because priorities change, sometimes because new leadership simply wants a different direction, and sometimes for bad reasons. In this case, a new mayor had been elected and clearly wanted a change. That happens. It’s exactly why contracts include severance — not as a reward, but to allow communities to move forward without unnecessary damage to people or the organization. A month after this meeting, the council voted 4-3 to terminate the manager. The mayor cast the deciding vote. When relationships break down, public torture and smearing rarely help anyone. Make the decision. Honor the contract. Part ways professionally. I thought the manager did a good job defending her reputation. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗱𝗶𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸?
