City Hall moves Sam Granata Jr to top job on a temporary basis on Friday, with his future as permanent manager dependent on the incoming City Council. Granata, 49, joined 24 years ago and has served as public works director since 1953, weighing retirement in under four years. He may seek a security agreement as the new council assumes office on May 1, after Hunt’s resignation surprised staff and council despite earlier criticisms over hires and minority/promotions efforts.
