City Manager Wayne Cauthen Stays Winning

The KC Biz Journal Reports: Appeals court ruling favors City Manager Cauthen . . . The Missouri Court of Appeals, Western District, ruled Tuesday that a city manager can be removed only with the mayor’s approval and the ratifying vote of six other council members, or, absent the mayor’s approval, with nine council members in favor of removing the city manager . . . In other words, the City Charter is upheld despite Mayor Funky's efforts to subvert. TKC still hears that Skaggs is about to drop this thing given the lack of popular support for the Mayor.
