With city mayor John Cowen and two other city commissioners out of town, a bare quorum of the commission voted Tuesday to postpone the selection and appointment of a new city manager until next Tuesday, April 28.
The five candidates narrowed down from an original pool are Interim City Manager Alan Gard, Brownsville Police Chief/Asst. City Manager Felix Sauceda, Assistant City Manager Doroteo Garcia, Steve Williams, City Manager of Schertz, Texas, Majed Al Ghafy, City Manager, DeSoto, Texas, and Edwina "Edy" Benites-LM, Interim Director of Economic Development, Jefferson County, West Virginia.
The eventual choice will permanently replace the former city manager Helen Ramirez, who left at the end of 2025.

We may never know the real reason Helen Ramirez left.
Well she is someone’s else’s problem now.
WTF really does a city manager do? Why are they important?
Educate me.

Alan Gard should receive the position
Oh Saint Nick, please guide these commissioners to hire the most unethical, self-serving, and corrupt individual that does not follow due process, procures shortcuts (take it easy), and wears Gucci or Oscar de la Renta.
They create huge problems, blame someone else and then use a lot of tax money to fix it.
My kind of city manager is one who wears a modest suit he bought locally from a JCPenny or Dillards and is a handyman at everything dealing with municipal government. He should have a Phd and be a local.
