The Lubbock City Council voted 4-3 on Monday evening to terminate City Manager Lee Ann Dumbauld, effective immediately.
The council will hold a special meeting at 3:30 p.m. Friday to name an interim city manager.
Mayor Glen Robertson said whether the firing was with or without cause, as well as the cost of Dumbauld's termination, have yet to be determined.
Robertson and council members Karen Gibson and Floyd Price voted against Dumbauld's termination. In favor were Victor Hernandez, Todd Klein, Jim Gerlt and Latrelle Joy.
