Commissioners appoint Ramiro Elizondo as Webb County fire chief, effective Oct. 1

Webb County Commissioner's Court · September 8, 2025

Summary

The Commissioner's Court named Assistant Chief Ramiro Elizondo to succeed the retiring chief, effective Oct. 1. The action followed recognition of retiring fire staff and discussion about continuity at the upcoming South facility.

The court voted to appoint Ramiro Elizondo as Webb County Fire Chief effective Oct. 1 after Chief Ricardo Rangel announced his retirement at the end of September. The appointment was moved and seconded and carried in open session.

Budget and operations discussion during the meeting acknowledged the need to name an interim or successor so that opening of the South facility and other operational matters would proceed without interruption. Commissioners thanked Chief Rangel for his service; Elizondo was supported by the chief and court staff during the executive-session-to-open-session process.
