City Council Meeting Minutes February 4, 2020 <br />important issues. Kristy Stark would have been more qualified because she <br />knows the code. Two of our Assistant City Mangers quit and now we have <br />three Assistant City Managers. Why do we have three Assistant City <br />Managers? That is more cops and firefighters and more affordable housing we <br />can have. Mr. Stapp is making $167,000, Stephanie is making $185,000 and <br />Joe is making $185,000. Why is Joe and Stephanie making more money than <br />Chase. When Chase has an impeccable track record and why do we need three <br />people? Was there a national search? Was there a hiring committee? This is <br />government not private sector. Finding it more problematic is that the City <br />Manager keeps adding items for his own neighborhood. The Mayor could <br />never vote on an agenda item that impacts her land. She would have to recuse <br />herself. Not sure why the charter is not allowing that provision. Would like a <br />charter amendment if City Manager and City Secretary have to live in the City <br />limits should also have the Assistant City Managers require to live in the City <br />limits. Or only have the City Manager live in the City limits. Speaking on <br />multigenerational. We are losing property taxes when people are packed in a <br />house like rats with all the cars on the street. We got chop shops in Blanco <br />Gardens and others selling drugs and staff have meet with. Death warrant on <br />Belvin Street because City Manager has refused to fix the sidewalks in front of <br />the habitant homes. List of names has not been provided from the residents of <br />Victory Gardens that didn't wanted the Historic Resource Survey. <br />CONSENT AGENDA <br />A motion was made by Deputy Mayor Pro Tem Rockeymoore, seconded by <br />Council Member Baker, to approve the consent agenda, with the exception of <br />#5 and #11, which were pulled and considered separately.
