The City of Edmonton is finalizing severance details with Andre Corbould, as the city manager suddenly leaves his position after three years on the job.
Days after city manager Andre Corbould announced his sudden departure, the City of Edmonton says it is finalizing details of Corbould’s severance after three years on the job. As Breanna Karstens-Smith reports, he's the seventh high-ranking city official to leave in less than a year.
While previous city managers were hired to term positions, the city would not confirm whether that was the case for Corbould. One month after Quach left, long-time city employee Gord Cebryk left his position of deputy city manager of city operations.According to a LinkedIn profile, Cebryk now works for Sturgeon County.In July, Stephanie McCabe left. She too had been a long-time employee, starting with the city in January 2003 and serving as deputy city manager of urban planning since February 2019.
The year began with Edmonton police taking down several homeless encampments that had popped up throughout the city. Corbould’s departure comes during a week when council is not sitting — meaning he, the mayor and councillors are not at City Hall to be questioned.“It strikes me as a very strange time for the city manager to be leaving when there are really important council meetings coming up in April,” said Brennan.While not a full budget session, councillors will receive several funding requests from organizations and will set the mill rate.
