Nederland council adopts 2025–26 meeting calendar, elects mayor pro tem and updates account signatories
Summary
Council adopted Ordinance 2025-08 setting regular meeting dates for May 19, 2025–April 2026, elected Jeff Ortiz mayor pro tem, and approved Resolution 2025-06 updating authorized signatories for the city investment account.
The Nederland City Council approved its meeting schedule for May 19, 2025 through April 2026, selected a mayor pro tem and updated authorized signers for a city investment account.
Council considered Ordinance 2025-08, which sets regular council meeting dates (meetings to begin at 6:00 p.m.) and adjusts specific dates to avoid holidays and early-voting periods. After a reading of the ordinance and clarification about timing, the council moved, seconded and approved the ordinance by voice vote.
As part of organizational business the council nominated and elected Council member Jeff Ortiz to serve as mayor pro tem for the coming year; the nomination was supported and approved by voice vote.
Council also approved Resolution 2025-06 to update the city's taxable investment account signatories, removing two prior signatories and authorizing the finance director and city manager (or their authorized investment officers) as the city's authorized investment officers. The motion carried by voice vote.
These actions were routine organizational steps the council took to set governance structures and delegations for the coming term.
