Hutto City Council approved its top three firms in its search for a permanent city manager at council's Feb. 20 meeting, following a Jan. 16 vote approving a request for proposal to officially begin its search process.

Strategic Government Resources, Bakertilly and Affion Public were voted on by council as its top candidates for consideration, with in-person interviews scheduled for council's special-called meeting Feb. 27. Hutto City Council could potentially decide on its top firm Feb. 27 or may postpone the decision until council's March 5 meeting. Once a firm is selected, council will then utilize its resources to hire a permanent replacement for its city manager position.
