Clayton hires interim city manager
Fran Robustelli, Clayton’s new interim city manager, has worked in local government for 25 years.

The Clayton City Council unanimously approved Fran Robustelli as the interim city manager at the July 21 meeting. Robustelli most recently was assistant city manager in Napa and assistant and interim city manager in Walnut Creek.

“Robustelli has over 25 years of professional local government experience working in diverse communities and multi-service organizations with a proven track record of building top-performing teams and successful implementation and administration of strategic organizational policies, programs and initiatives,” said Mayor Julie Pierce.

“The opportunity to serve the community of Clayton is an honor, and I am thrilled to be joining the city team,” Robustelli told the council. “I am looking forward to working with the City Council and staff, as well as getting to know the community so we can collaborate together to ensure the City Council’s priorities are achieved.”

Robustelli will receive a salary of $190,000, a $400 car allowance and a technology allowance. She replaces Ikani Taumoepeau, who resigned in May after being hired last November. CPS HR Consulting will continue the search for a new city manager, which is expected to take four to five months.
