Following a closed executive session on Oct. 2, the Fair Oaks Ranch City Council returned to open session and approved a modification to the city manager’s employment contract that increases the manager’s annual salary to $206,500.

Mayor Maxton moved to modify the employment contract “by changing his yearly salary to $206,500 a year,” and a council member seconded the motion. The motion passed with all council members present voting in favor.

Council did not provide additional details in open session about other contract terms. The council’s announcement followed an executive‑session evaluation of the city manager; the action taken in open session was limited to the salary modification and the motion was recorded as approved.
