March 4, an attorney for former Sealy City Manager Lloyd Merrell filed a lawsuit against the City of Sealy and Mayor Carolyn Bilski seeking $250,000 in damages after Merrell was terminated and was not compensated, according to the terms of his contract. The petition claims that Bilski and members of the Sealy City Council wrongfully blamed Merrell for financial reversals the city experienced during the COVID-19 pandemic.
