Aransas Pass City Council appoints Efremio Isasi as city attorney, Carlos Fambos as city prosecutor

The Aransas Pass City Council reconvened in open session at 4:30 p.m. and approved appointments to two city legal posts, appointing Efremio Isasi as city attorney and Carlos Fambos as city prosecutor.

A council member identified only as "K." moved to appoint Efremio Isasi as city attorney and to approve an employment contract "pursuant to the agreed terms." A second council member moved to second the action, and council members voiced approval. The council then moved to appoint Carlos Fambos as city prosecutor and approved that employment contract in a subsequent voice vote.

The appointments and contract approvals were taken from items listed on the executive-session agenda and implemented immediately upon reconvening in open session, according to the motions recorded in the meeting transcript. The motions as recorded stated that the employment contracts were approved "pursuant to the agreed terms;" the transcript did not specify the contract length, salary, or other terms.

The transcript records voice votes in which council members responded "Aye." No roll-call votes or individual yes/no tallies were recorded in the transcript provided. After the appointments, a council member moved to adjourn and the motion was seconded.

The meeting transcript does not include public comment on the appointments, nor does it record statements from Isasi or Fambos about their new roles. Details about the effective start dates for the appointments, the written contract texts, and any background checks or prior employment history were not specified in the transcript.
