OCALA, Fla. (WCJB) - The Ocala City Council took the final step to sever their contract with outgoing City Manager Sandra Wilson.
Council members unanimously approved a payout of nearly $295,000 to Wilson, who was fired in a 3-2 vote two weeks ago.
Wilson’s salary was less than $240,000, but outstanding paid time off, administrative leave, and other perks drove up the severance price.
Council also agreed to a salary of $225,000 for Interim City Manager Pete Lee.
