You're Fired

The Iowa City City Council fired City Manager Michael Lombardo last Friday with a unanimous vote behind closed doors last Friday. Once again, proving just how frustratingly incompetent they can be- no reason was apparently given. None whatsoever. Lombardo was an 'at-will' employee and they just upped and fired him. All this after an exhaustive search just to find him in the first place after Steve Atkins moved on from the post.

Now we're on the hook for $80,000 in severance pay and I think Iowa Citians have been left with an extremely bad taste in their mouths about the way this has been handled.
