East Lansing Council Parts Ways with City Manager

East Lansing’s city council has approved a separation agreement with outgoing city manager Robert Belleman, following a closed-door vote — despite an investigation finding no policy or legal violations. The mayor called it a mutual parting to usher in a new chapter, while appointing Annette Irwin as interim city manager. The move follows harassment allegations from a city grant coordinator that led to Belleman’s suspension, which was later extended. The council is now focused on moving forward with a permanent replacement. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
