City Commissioner Nurith Galonsky had complained at the last meeting on December 10 that commission had been given conflicting attendance reports with respect to board members.
"What I submitted initially to the commission was simply a record of attendance, much like is done with at the City Commission," Lozoya explained.
"Later, I received from (GBIC Board Chairman) Steve Guerra information showing that absences by certain members had been excused," added Lozoya.
Commissioner Neece wondered aloud if the absences by one commission member were connected to "four family emergencies," while Commissioner Rose Gowen indicated that, "even if the absences are excused, how many absences can be allowed?"
Gowen added that there comes time when "the board member must acknowledge" they simply can no longer serve the community in that capacity.

| Pedro Cardenas |
Despite the explanatory information by Director Lozoya, Commissioner Galonsky made a motion that Board Member Pedro Cardenas be removed, naming the board member publicly for the first time in the meeting.
Commissioner Galonsky and Neece supported the motion to remove Cardenas with Commissioner Tetreau voting "nay!"
No audible or physical vote by Commissioners Munguia, Cowen or Gowen was discernable.
One city insider claimed that Cardenas "only shows up to vote on issues important to Carlos Marin."
You don’t know any “city insiders,” Barton. Get over yourself.

DeletePost pro-Sofie comments, you asshole! Jerk!
ReplyDeleteI've posted all of the comments supporting Benavides, although few, even publishing your juvenile posting above.
DeleteHe keeps posting race-baiting comments about Benavides, Jim. He's beyond obsessed with your blog Jim. Do you think his obsession is a form of penis envy?
DeleteHow about defining "Obsessive" Does the press suffer from this disorder as to President Trump?
ReplyDeleteActually, it's the other way around. Trump has an inordinate fear of the press which is why he hasn't held a press conference in over 300 days. Certainly, the president's aides are even more fearful of what the incompetent, bumbling POTUS might say to real journalists, thus he only fields the pandering, softball questions on Trump(Fox) News.
Delete"No politician can count on gaining 100% support on the issues, but there is no question that County Commissioner Sofie Benavides is the hardest working public servant among her colleagues. She treats her position like a full-time job and maintains an open-door policy. While her fanatical foe rants and raves as he trolls Facebook with his wild commentary ("Es bien loco!" says a former BISD colleague.), Sofie has and continues to make a difference. Here she addresses a topic dear to many Cameron County citizens." - The McHale Report
ReplyDeleteJim, Can you please post Sofie’s past campaign finance reports? I want to see if she received money from LNG companies. She sold herself to the devil!
