Board authorizes superintendent action on alleged trustee misconduct
Summary
Trustees voted to direct the superintendent to implement actions discussed in closed session after investigation findings into alleged board member misconduct; the board approved the motion by voice vote.
The WESLACO ISD board approved a motion directing Superintendent Dr. Rivera to take action as discussed in closed session regarding investigation findings into alleged board member misconduct.
A trustee moved and another trustee seconded the measure in open session; the board then voted and the motion passed. The motion's public-language authorized the superintendent to enact the closed-session recommendations.
During public comment a community member had accused trustees of using "borrowed seats" to influence hiring and promotions and suggested those actions could be misconduct. The board did not provide a public resolution to those accusations in open session but completed the procedural step of authorizing administrative action following the closed‑session review.
