TIFTON — City manager Emily Beeman has been placed on administrative leave.

Vice mayor Josh Reynolds announced that Beeman had been placed on leave during the July 22 city council meeting, but did not elaborate any further.

Beeman was appointed to the position of city manager in 2023, first becoming interim manager during the city council’s search for a candidate to fill the position before ultimately being determined to be the optimal choice for the role. She became the first woman to take on the role for the city.
