The Ethics Review Commission dismissed a complaint against former Interim City Manager Jesús Garza, which alleged he violated city regulations by hiring Laura Huffman and Joe Canales without City Council approval. Despite attempts to move the complaint forward to a final hearing, the commission could not secure the necessary six votes. Garza defended his decision by stating it was imperative to act swiftly in response to issues stemming from Winter Storm Mara, reiterating the urgency of the situation he faced during his interim tenure.
"The Ethics Review Commission did not find enough evidence to move forward on the complaint, ultimately leading to its dismissal against Garza."
"Garza defended his actions, stating the urgency to address the city’s issues post-Winter Storm Mara justified the decisions made during his interim management."
