Snellville city manager submits resignation

Snellville city manager Russell Treadway submitted his resignation Tuesday after accepting a similar position with Sevierville, Tenn.

Treadway will become the city administrator in Sevierville, an east Tennessee town of about 14,000 where he once served in the same position for 16 years. In his resignation letter, Treadway said that his time in Snellville had been "challenging and stimulating."

Snellville Mayor Kelly Kautz said she will nominate an interim city manager within days and then task the City Council with conducting a search for a permanent replacement.
