Bethesda Beat a.k.a. MoCo360 is reporting that City Manager Jamal Fox has resigned. Like many of their stories, they have largely just rewritten a press release without doing any investigation.

From the article:
Fox had previously been City Administrator of Camas, Washington, according to his LinkedIn profile. A welcome letter from Fox that Takoma Park posted in May 2021 did not mention a finite term but quoted him as saying he and his wife, “saw Takoma Park as a beautiful community that shared our family values and where we could raise our family. My family and I look forward to connecting with you in the community.”MoCo360 overlooked the fact that upon relocating from Washington state, Mr. Fox promptly purchased a home in southern Prince George's County, specifically in Upper Marlboro, a 45 minute drive from Takoma Park. From all appearances, his choice of Prince George's County was not based on affordability, as the purchase price of the home was $850,000.

If MoCo360 does a follow-up story, perhaps they could ask Mr. Fox why he chose to live in Upper Marlboro after publicly expressing so much enthusiasm for raising his family in Takoma Park.
