Gerald Seeber, the Tampa Bay Water general manager who urged the utility to pursue an expensive and as-yet unsuccessful lawsuit against HDR Engineering over cracking at its reservoir, has told the group he is seeking employment elsewhere.
The pending move was made public at Tampa Bay Water's Feb. 18 board meeting. In late February, though, utility general counsel Barrie S. Buenaventura told ENR that Seeber had not yet given his formal notice. Even so, the Tampa Tribune reported that Seeber already had been listed as a candidate for the position of city manager for the Tampa suburb of Temple Terrace. "I'd like to make the move back to [city government]," Seeber told ENR.
