Ann Arbor’s Contract with Wheeler Extended

At its May 2, 2011 meeting, the Ann Arbor city council approved a contract extension with William Wheeler for oversight of the municipal center construction project. In March 2010, the council had voted to continue Wheeler’s services as the municipal center project manager – Wheeler is a former city of Ann Arbor employee.

The contract language stipulated that it would expire when Wheeler hit a maximum compensation of $126,000 or by April 30, 2011. The council approved a contract extension of 60 days, with no increase in the cap on total compensation.

This brief was filed from city council chambers, located at 301 E. Huron. A more detailed report of the meeting will follow: [link]
