Another top officer at Northumberland County Council looks set to leave the authority with a six-figure payout.
The council's director of transformation, Allison Joynson, requested voluntary redundancy from her position and would be paid a total package of £214,063.98. However, the figure will have to be agreed by members at a full council meeting.
It comes less than a month after the council's former CEO Daljit Lally was controversially awarded a £209,000 payout to leave her role following a protracted dispute with leading councillors.
