Cupertino city manager steps down as part of settlement - San Jose Spotlight
Briefly

The Cupertino City Council recently settled with City Manager Pamela Wu, who will receive over $311,000 in severance pay after being placed on paid leave. The settlement terms require the city to halt investigations into her conduct and destroy related records. Wu emphasized the honor of serving the community during her nearly three-year tenure, though details on the reason for her departure remain undisclosed. Former Deputy City Manager Tina Kapoor will act as interim leader as the search for a new manager begins, while Mayor Liang Chao expresses hope for stability in city operations.
"This has not been an easy choice, but it is the right time to start a new chapter," she told San José Spotlight.
"Leadership transitions are never easy - but at times, they are necessary to ensure that city operations remain stable, transparent and responsive to the needs of our community," she told San José Spotlight.
