The City of Sweetwater Commission approved a resolution transferring title of a Ford Crown Victoria to Reuben Mena, a retired reserve police officer, at the Sept. 22, 2025, meeting.
The item’s text states that Mena, who previously served as a reserve police officer and donated the vehicle to the Sweetwater Police Department after paying for striping and emergency lights, is requesting the city return the vehicle to him. The resolution provides rationale and authority for transferring title and lists an effective date in the resolution text.
Commissioner Yano moved the resolution and Commissioner Rey seconded. The commission recorded the vote in the affirmative and the transfer passed. City officials said Mena intends to gift the vehicle to his grandson.
No public comment was recorded on the item. The transfer was presented as an administrative action at the end of the meeting.
