Daytona Beach City Commission voted 4-3 on May 6, 2026 to renew City Manager Deric Feacher's contract for three additional years beyond its May 31, 2026 expiration. Feacher has served five years at a $300,000 annual base salary and received a 3.63 out of 5 aggregate performance rating from commissioners. Supporters including NAACP's Cynthia Slater and Rev. Jermaine Fuller highlighted neighborhood growth in Midtown and Derbyshire while opponents cited delayed information and unspent permit fees. The renewal occurred amid ongoing financial investigations by internal auditors, state auditors, and prosecutors with no evidence of wrongdoing by Feacher yet.
