Rohr, who was in Joplin from 2006 until 2014, when the City Council fired him by a 5-4 vote, was city manager in League City, Texas from 2014 to 2016.
The Springfield News-Sun reports more than 20 people, including Rohr, have applied for the position, which will become vacant when the current city manager steps down in January.
Springfield has a population of slightly less than 60,000. The city manager has 493 employees and supervises a $43 million budget.
Rohr originally comes from Ohio and had his first city manager positions in the state.
The current city manager? Homer Simpson.

ReplyDeleteWhat could go wrong?
Very doubtful that Rohr will ever be hired as a City Mgr ever again. Same issues, different cities. I think his track record speaks for itself.
