There is more turnover near the top of Livermore’s city administration, as deputy city manager Marie Weber quietly resigned in recent weeks after just over two years in the position.
Assistant to the city manager Stephanie Egidio is now pulling double duty by adding on the role of acting deputy city manager for ongoing operations while City Manager Marianna Burch assesses her department’s structure in the wake of the unexpected departure.

Weber – who began transitioning into the No. 3 position in the City Manager’s Office early in 2023 after serving as Livermore’s city clerk – resigned on June 13 citing personal reasons, according to city management analyst Sonia Lee, who has taken on public information officer duties from Egidio.
The departure has not been publicly announced by the city, and Weber was still listed as deputy city manager on the city website as recently as Tuesday.
Her resignation came the same month as the news that city attorney Jason Alcala would be retiring at a yet-undetermined date this summer after more than a decade in the role. The city is also going through a fire chief transition as Joe Testa intends to retire from the Livermore-Pleasanton Fire Department later this year.
“Ms. Weber made meaningful contributions throughout her tenure, as City Clerk, and when she assumed responsibilities for both the Deputy City Manager and City Clerk roles,” Lee said. “We sincerely thank Ms. Weber for her six years of dedicated service to the Livermore community and extend our well wishes to her and her family.”
As for the position going forward, “The Deputy City Manager is a key leader within the City Manager’s Office, primarily responsible for executing citywide special projects and overseeing various programs, including strategic plan management, legislative efforts, and modernizing community engagement,” Lee said. “As this transition was not anticipated, the City is taking this opportunity to evaluate position responsibilities and service delivery, ensuring we best serve the needs of the Livermore community.”
After nearly four years as city clerk, Weber worked concurrently as deputy city manager/city clerk from Feb. 27, 2023 until July 1, 2024 when she shed the latter title to become solely deputy city manager – according to an employment timeline provided by Lee.
