\”It was best for the both of us to go in a different direction,\” Cranley said.
During the campaign, Cranley had said he would interview Dohoney for the city manager\’s job. Under the city\’s charter, the mayor does not have the power to fire the city manager without the consent of five council members.
At the news conference, Cranley denied that he had told Dohoney he had a choice between resignation or dismissal. But three sources with knowledge of the situation told the Courier otherwise, and Cranley did not deny the story when he was contacted for comment about it earlier Wednesday.
Cranley said he plans to pick an interim city manager when he takes office on Dec. 1 and would begin a search for a permanent city manager shortly thereafter.
\”I want the best city manager that shares my vision and values,\” Cranley said.
