The resolution they will vote on Tuesday ends with a declaration that he should quit now, but even if it passes, they cannot remove him.
The county’s retiring top executive will stay on temporarily, being paid nearly $200 per hour, as the Board of Supervisors searches for a replacement and navigates uncertainty prompted by Nathan Fletcher’s plan to resign.Desmond issued a statement late Sunday saying Fletcher should be cut off the county payroll.
“Given these circumstances, the search for a new chief administrative officer should be restarted without input from Mr. Fletcher,” he added. “This is an important decision for the future of San Diego County and he should not have any input in future decision-making.” Fletcher has denied the allegations but admitted to what he called “consensual interactions” with Figueroa. He resigned from the MTS board the same day. On March 29, as details of the allegations swirled around San Diego County, he announced he would resign as county supervisor as well, but not until May 15.
