Los Fresnos council names Roberto Baez as preferred city manager
Summary
After closed-session interviews, the Los Fresnos City Council voted to select Roberto Baez as its preferred candidate for city manager and authorized negotiating an employment agreement.
The Los Fresnos City Council selected Roberto Baez as its preferred candidate for city manager and authorized negotiations on an employment agreement after reconvening from closed session. A council member made the motion to hire Baez and the motion carried.
The action followed a closed session convened under Texas Government Code §551.074 to review applicants, conduct interviews and deliberate the selection of preferred candidates for the city manager position. The council resumed open session and approved the motion to move forward with Baez.
No salary or start date was announced during the open session; the council’s vote authorized staff to negotiate the employment agreement. The council welcomed Baez in the meeting’s final remarks.
The council took the vote after earlier public business that included discussion of infrastructure projects, contracts and grant applications. The meeting record shows the closed-session deliberation took place under the statutory personnel-exception cited in the agenda.
