Galesburg City Attorney Bradley Nolden apparently has resigned his position as City Attorney as of Sept. 3. Whether Nolden's resignation has any link to the sudden announcement appointing a City Manager is unclear. The Galesburg Council has an agenda item on Tuesday night to hire the law firm of Barash and Everett to handle city legal services in Nolden's absence. Specifically, Attorneys Leslie Day and former Judge Paul Mangieri would be handling the city's legal issues. Day and Mangieri will be present at City Hall no less than two days a week. The Barash and Everett contract will be worth $8,333 a month and can be canceled by either party with 30 days notice. Nolden has been Galesburg's City Attorney for the past 7 years with his position taking on increasing duties through his tenure. Todd Thompson resigned as City Manager to work for Rock Island in May and since then Director of Public Works Wayne Carl has acted as City Manager. Galesburg Aldermen on Tuesday can
