CITY MANAGER TODD VENNING ANNOUNCES PLANNED TRANSITION AT END OF MARCH
City Seal

City positioned for continuity of progress following stabilization and reform

The City of Newburgh today announced that City Manager Todd Venning will conclude his service effective March 31, following several years focused on fiscal recovery, operational stabilization, and governance reform.

Venning was appointed during a period of significant organizational and financial stress. His tenure emphasized rebuilding core systems rather than short-term measures, including the restoration of audit credibility, strengthened internal controls, disciplined financial management, and coordinated risk oversight across labor, infrastructure, and legal operations. The City now enters its next phase on a more stable footing.

“This transition is deliberate and appropriately timed,” Venning said. “The work required stabilization, clarity, and ethical judgment under pressure. That work is now substantially complete, and the City is well positioned for continuity and progress.”

Venning added that his professional focus has consistently been on defined mandates and durable outcomes rather than permanence:

“I do my best work in environments that need stabilization, clarity, and ethical judgment under pressure. My background spans executive leadership, finance, law, and governance, with a focus on restoring credibility, building durable systems, and transitioning organizations to their next phase. I’m particularly effective in roles with clear mandates, bounded authority, and defined exits.”

The City Council will outline next steps regarding interim leadership in the coming weeks. Venning will remain fully engaged through the end of March to ensure a smooth and orderly transition.
