Title: Cupertino City Manager Bids Farewell After Settlement Amid Unresolved Issues

After a month-long leave, Cupertino's beleaguered city manager, Pamela Wu, is bidding adieu. The city and Wu have penned a settlement agreement, revealed in city records, on June 6, 2023. This marks Wu as the fourth city manager to hit the exit since 2018.

However, the settlement details remain undisclosed, shrouding the reasons behind Wu's leave. Recently surfaced records point to a controversy involving City Manager Pamela Wu and Mayor Liang Chao, leading to a whopping $311,089.53 settlement paid by the city[1]. This settlement, though not directly related to Wu's leave in June, underlines the interplay of power dynamics within the local administration.

In an era when transparency matters, City Council's silence raises eyebrows. Residents and community leaders have demanded answers, questioning the need for such secrecy surrounding Wu’s exit. As the dust settles, one still wonders: what really happened behind those closed doors?
