Galesburg may decide to part ways with its city manager as soon as Monday, when the City Council will discuss a proposed separation agreement with Gerald Smith.
The City of Galesburg is considering the adoption of a policy that would regulate what flags can fly at City Hall and on other municipal flag polls. Whether that policy is restrictive or inclusive remains to be seen.
An acting city manager is now the top administrator at Galesburg City Hall. Meanwhile Galesburg Mayor Peter Schwartzman blames the City Council for creating a situation where city government "cannot function on all cylinders."
