Goodyear city manager retires after 39 years

Friday, March 6 marks the final day of service for Goodyear's City Manager Wynette Reed.

Reed announced her retirement in October after 39 years of public service.

“Serving as the city manager of Goodyear has been the honor of my lifetime. I am deeply grateful for the trust the city council and community has placed in me and for the opportunity to help shape a city that is innovative, resilient and full of heart," said Reed. "While this marks the end of my chapter, I truly believe this is just the beginning for Goodyear. The future is bright, and I cannot wait to see all that this city accomplishes in the years ahead.”

The Goodyear City Council has initiated a recruitment process to select Goodyear’s next city manager. The city will provide updates as the process moves forward.

A series of interviews with candidates will take place before the end of the month when the council is expected to make its appointment.

Until a permanent city manager is appointed by the city council, Deputy City Manager Kini Knudson will serve as interim city manager.
