The Farmersville City Coun­cil is trying to figure out a way to hire a new Main Street manager while making clear to whom he or she reports and avoiding con­flict between various governing and regulatory panels.

Kevin Casey, the former Main Street manager, was ter­minated by City Manager Ben White after less than a year on the job.

At the Tuesday, June 8 city council meeting, however, it was decided the topic needs more “introspection,” as Councilman Craig Overstreet described it, be­fore moving forward to selecting a successor to Casey.

The council did decide that it will meet before too long with the city’s community develop­ment council (4B) to hash out some of the issues that Mayor Bryon Wiebold said has come between council, 4B, the Main Street board and White.
