It’s official. Scott Collins has signed a 21-month contract to be Milton’s city manager beginning Oct. 2.
But nothing pertaining to Collins’ hiring has been without controversy.
“I’m happy that Mr. Collins is now our city manager, but I wasn’t pleased about the process,” Councilmember Marilyn Farrow said at the council’s agenda workshop meeting Sept. 21 after announcing that City Attorney Alex Andrade and Collins had executed a contract.
