BC manager’s job appears safe for now

Thursday, Nov. 6, 2003 | 9:42 a.m.

After a two-hourlong closed-door meeting between the Boulder City Council and City Manager John Sullard, the council agreed to hold another job review for Sullard in three months.

It appears Sullard's job is safe for now, as a majority of the council wants to keep Sullard, Mayor Bob Ferraro said.

The job review meetings were prompted by Ferraro's call for Sullard's resignation a week before the June election. It came during a meeting at which the council was told the city's Boulder Creek Golf Club was losing money.

Sullard and some council members would not say what they discussed during the Wednesday afternoon meeting, but Ferraro said talks about Boulder Creek took up most of the meeting.

The golf course opened in January with predictions it would turn a profit during its first six months open, but instead it has been losing money. Last month, Sullard and the city's finance director presented the council with a plan to trim $1.2 million from the general fund budget to cover debt payments.
