BRENTWOOD, CA - The City of Brentwood is pleased to announce the appointment of Terrance Davis as the City's new Assistant City Manager following a highly competitive nationwide recruitment process.
The recruitment, conducted by executive search firm Peckham & McKenney, attracted 118 applicants from across the country. After a comprehensive evaluation process, Mr. Davis was selected for his extensive executive leadership background and proven ability to build efficient, high performing municipal operations.
Mr. Davis brings more than 20 years of California local government experience, including his current role as Director of Public Works for the City of Berkeley, where he oversees infrastructure systems, transportation networks, facilities management, and community assets. His previous leadership roles with the Cities of Vallejo and Sacramento reflect a career focused on strengthening core city services, from parks and senior centers to capital project delivery, organizational development, and service delivery improvement.
"Terrance has worked across nearly every corner of city operations," said City Manager G. Harold Duffey. "His expertise will help us sharpen our operations and meet the changing needs of our residents. This, in turn, allows me to focus on Brentwood's long-term growth, infrastructure buildout, and responsible scaling."
The appointment comes at an important time for Brentwood as the City works toward its 2035-2040 General Plan buildout. The City Manager's Office is structured to balance strong day-to-day operations with long-range planning and infrastructure growth.
"I am honored to join the City of Brentwood," said Davis. "This team has built an incredible reputation for service, and I look forward to carrying that momentum forward alongside such a dedicated team."
Mr. Davis will join the City of Brentwood at the end of March 2026.
