The
Anniston City Council voted Wednesday afternoon to offer Brian
Johnson the position of city manager. Johnson is currently the city
manager of Garden City, Georgia, near Savannah. The council brought
Johnson to the city Wednesday for an in-person interview, and held a
public meet and greet for him at City Hall at noon. Less than two
hours later, Mayor Vaughn Stewart and council members Jay Jenkins and
Millie Harris voted to give Johnson the job.
Council members David Reddick and Seyram Selase voted in favor of
the council's other finalist for the position, Gerald Smith of Kansas
City, saying he had more experience. Smith was in town for a similar
interview and public reception Monday. The council also voted to
offer the position to Smith if they are unable to reach an agreement
on terms with Johnson.
