An offer of employment has been extended to the lone finalist for Farmersville’s city manager position as city officials move closer to filling the city’s top administrative role.

During a special called meeting Friday, May 29, councilmembers authorized Mayor Craig Overstreet to extend the offer following discussion in executive session. The position was discussed again during executive session at the Tuesday, June 1 regular meeting, although no action was taken afterward in open session.

Mayor Overstreet said negotiations are ongoing and the city hopes to finalize the hiring process soon.

“The offer is still being negotiated,” he said. “Hopefully a formal resolution will be brought forth at the June 15 meeting.”
