The Hendersonville Standard has more:

The city of Hendersonville has agreed to pay former Public Works Director Chip Moore $35,000 in order to settle Moore’s claims that Mayor Jamie Clary violated a state statute by attempting to limit the director’s interactions with city aldermen.

Moore resigned from his position in December to go to work for the city of Spring Hill, Tenn., after a tumultuous relationship with Clary.

Clary signed a settlement agreement on Tuesday following a contentious 9 to 4 vote directing him to do so.
