The agenda for Monday's Council Meeting is posted on the city's website on the Meeting Information and Audio page  Don't forget you can watch the meeting live over the internet (the link only works during the meeting) or you can watch a recording once it is posted a couple days after the meeting. Of course you can always go to city hall Monday night and participate.

As the article title tells you council plans on appointing a new city manager. Read the official details in this DDN article:

Huber Heights finds next city manager

I've been asking council members for weeks when they were going to announce how they were going to go about searching for a new manager. Instead of answering they held all those discussions in executive session with no transparency at all.

The read ahead is available as links in the agenda items. I've copied some of them below. The terms of the city manager contract are interesting and I may add my thoughts within the table later.
