Yukon City Manager Mike Castro has resigned after eight months in the top municipal administrative position.

Castro informed Yukon City Council members of his decision over the weekend and city employees learned about it Monday morning.

“Mike stepped into this role during a time of critical transition,” Mayor Brian Pillmore said Monday morning.

Gov. Kevin Stitt appointed Redlands Community College alumnus Jason Murray to a seven-year term on the college’s Board of Regents, succeeding retired educator Dr. Juanita Krittenbrink.

Murray graduated with an associate degree in animal science from Redlands in 2017 and was a member of the college’s Livestock Judging Team.

“Redlands provided me with an exceptional foundation that has shaped both my education and career path,” Murray said.
