Albany City Manager Steven Carter announces resignation
ALBANY, Ga. – Albany City Manager Steven Carter announced earlier this week that he will be resigning from the position.
This comes as the city is still investigating the death of Albany Public Works employee Darrious Stephens, who went missing on Monday, Feb. 12, while conducting water samples in the Flint River during heavy rainfall.
In a statement released Thursday afternoon, Carter said: “With a mixture of emotions, I am formally submitting my resignation. I sincerely regret bidding farewell to the team that has generously supported my professional growth and development. However, I am also invigorated by the prospect of embracing new challenges and opportunities.
I wish to express my profound gratitude for the privilege of serving in this capacity. It has been an honor, and I am sincerely appreciative of the opportunities extended to me.
Thank you for the opportunity to serve.”
His last day will be Tuesday, April 16th.
CBS 44 has reached out to the City of Albany for an interview with Carter. We are still waiting on a set date at this time.
