Topeka contemplates city manager in special meeting

TOPEKA (KSNT) - The city council had another special session to again discuss the two finalists for the vacant city manager position.

The choice is down to Alan Howze of Kansas City, Kansas and Robert Perez of Dallas, Texas. Both candidates have over 20 years of experience working in leadership positions for local governments.

At a press conference Tuesday morning ahead of the special session, Mayor Padilla and Nienstedt said they were confident no announcement would be made, which held true.
