After blowback, San Antonio Mayor Gina Ortiz Jones drops controversial City Hall rule change
San Antonio Mayor Gina Ortiz Jones has hoisted a white flag in her controversial battle to change the process under which City Council members bring up policy proposals for a vote. At least, for now. In a Thursday memo to City Manager Erik Walsh, Jones wrote that after receiving critical feedback from colleagues, City Council will stick with a process established under former Mayor Ron Nirenberg governing how members introduce Council Consideration Requests (CCRs).
