Macon fires city administrator, will begin talks on interim soon

COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)

The City of Macon on Thursday wrote on its Facebook page that it has let go City Administrator Scott Meszaros.

“After long deliberations among the Council, we believe the best interests of the City would be better served by moving in a different direction,” Mayor Tony Petre is quoted in the release. “We appreciate Mr. Meszaro’s hard work, professionalism, and dedication to our city. We wish him success in his future endeavors.”

The post says additional comments from the city will not be given for a “personnel matter.” The city will soon begin talks on who will serve as the interim administrator, the post says.

A previous Facebook post from the city indicates Meszaros was hired on Jan. 31 and started in the position on March 3.
