Nearly two months after the Prescott City Council approved a settlement with a non-disclosure agreement with former City Manager Katie Gregory in the midst of her resignation, the city released the agreement to the public on Thursday afternoon, Feb. 15.
From the city’s handling of confidential information, to the breadth of Prescott City Council discussions that occur behind closed doors, to the way city employees are treated, a number of local residents maintain that an “abuse of power” has been occurring at City Hall.
When a group of four long-time Prescott residents met at City Hall in late-November 2023 to begin the process for a recall of Mayor Phil Goode, they listed a number of allegations, ranging from a lack of public transparency to creation of a hostile workplace.
To date, the City of Prescott appears to have spent more than $40,000 on three investigations on recent actions taken by the mayor, City Council members, and city staff, as well as a still-unknown amount for a settlement agreement with the former city manager.
