WACO CITY COUNCIL MOVES FORWARD ON CITY MANAGER SELECTION

The agenda item shows they will meet at 3 p.m. today.  What is clearly AI posting the council may or may not interview the 4 finalists today.  The old city manager is not leaving until February, so there is time.  AI posts also indicate the candidates will be taken around the city to meet administrators and groups.

There is no telling if a decision will be made today.  I saw one AI post the decision will be made on Thursday, but it is not on the agenda. 

UPDATE:  RYAN HOLT MADE WACO CITY MANAGER, DENYING HELEN RAMIREZ THE JOB

Helen Ramirez had to have known she had no chance for the job.  She was not even on the same planet has Ryan Holt.  

"The Waco City Council voted Tuesday to appoint Ryan Holt as the next

City Manager.

The city says they selected a proven leader with extensive experience in municipal operations, organizational leadership, and community engagement. Holt brings more than 29 years of progressive government leadership experience and has served the city in key leadership roles, most recently as an Assistant City Manager."

Ramirez lacked even the modicum of experience needed to interact with Ft. Hood. Holt the City Manager designee, clearly has years of experience which is essential to being the Waco City Manager.
