ALAMOGORDO, N.M. (AP) — The city manager of Alamogordo has resigned, making the fourth departure of a high ranking official this year.

The Alamogordo Daily News ( http://bit.ly/JOAfIB ) reports City Manager Mark Roath tendered his resignation Friday to the mayor.

Mayor Susie Galea says Roath is unable to move his family to Alamogordo. She says he is leaving the city on good terms after three years of service.

Galea says she is concerned about the number of personnel who have left.

Besides Roath, the assistant city manager and city finance director also resigned. The city's public works director was fired.

Galea says those positions cannot be filled until a new city manager is in place.
