Following is the text Kingsberry sent:
August 11th, 2025
This letter is written to inform you of my resignation from the positions for City Manager and City Attorney. One contract requires 30 days notice and the other requires a month. For the sake of peace for myself and my family and for the City, this is the best decision. I’ve shared with you my issues with the Mayor and you’ve seen them unfold publicly so I encourage you to protect staff and abide by the Charter. I will remain available for any investigation on my actions for I have not done anything wrong. Thank you for this opportunity. God bless the City of Henderson.
