The Weslaco citizen’s commission has carved down a group of 40 candidates, the citizen’s committee has presented city commissioners with a list of three possible candidates for the city manager position.
Mayor Buddy De La Rosa said the committee has held regular meetings during the last two months to pare down the list of candidates — one with experience in the manufacturing industry and two others with experience in the municipal government arena.
“This is the first time we’ve ever created one because it’s the responsibility of the mayor and commissioners to select the city manager,” he said. “The committee received 40 applications. Of those 40, they said that 10 were worthy of being interviewed. Of those 10 they recommended three.”
