TURMOIL: LAGUNA VISTA MANAGER GONZALEZ FIRED, CHIEF OF POLICE DAVID, CITY COMMISSIONER TOLIN, RESIGN

(Ed.'s Note: Is it a tempest in a teapot, or just good old creative chaos that reigns over at Laguna Vista nowadays? Used as we are to hear of sexual escapades between city officials, police officers and city workers, it should come as no surprise that these folks – living as they do, in a fishbowl – should act up every once in a while. Something new always coming out of LV.)

According to town officials, after multiple reviews of City Manager Rendie Gonzalez, the Laguna Vista Town Council decided to terminate her employment. The following day, Police Chief Anthony David resigned from his position as well as Commissioner Pl. 3 Betina Tolin.

During the most recent town hall meeting on, Deputy Greg Cruz was appointed interim city manager and police chief for a 60-90 day period. The motions were made by commissioner Teresa Bryant after an hour long closed executive session. The board agreed unanimously.

Cruz says the appointment was a surprise to him.

“I wasn’t expecting it at all,” said Cruz.

According to Cruz, he does not have any prior city management experience and says he is unsure of why he was chosen to fill this role. He asks for patience during this time period until a new city manager is
chosen.

According to Cruz, he has worked for the Town of Laguna Vista for ten years.

“Commander Cruz has no interest in becoming the city manager in the future,” said Mayor Michael Carter. “He is going to help us out, to get through this process, to do the day-to-day operations. We are in a really
good time in the City to go through this. We have no big projects on the horizon.”

The board unanimously approved to put out RFQs in search for a permanent city manager.

Carter told those present at the Dec. 16 meeting that Cruz would be leaning heavily on the board for the time being.
