Louis M. Andersen, Pinal County manager for a little more than a year, agreed to resign over the weekend and submitted his resignation with no comment Monday.

The Pinal County Board of Supervisors voted to accept a mutual separation agreement in lieu of severance Tuesday afternoon. Andersen did not attend the meeting and didn’t immediately return a phone call.

The separation agreement includes a $150,000 payment to Andersen minus tax withholding, and Andersen waives any claim to vacation, sick leave or other benefits.
