Dear All, I am the "Mr. Rodriguez" who attended the Feb. 14,2013 FEDC meeting under my own personal discretion and desire to help The City of Floresville in their time of need and crisis. My intentions were genuine and I was not sent by anyone; specifically "Tejada or Perez" to this meeting. I went on my own time and expense to offer on an interim basis my extensive experience, professionalism, and knowledge in state wide municipal affairs, economic development and leadership roles, so that the city would not lose momentum and minimize financial loss in its ongoing projects and ED mission. Your city is a wonderful city and has on and off issues like many others in the state and nation, thats democracy in action it is constantly changing, shifting powers and political direction, however my experience has been that resorting to spreading hurtful rumors that are not true can only be counter productive. Try instead to offer positive input on how to help your community and getting involved on committees, etc. In closing I reiterate; I went to help your community not for personal gain or to serve any person or political agenda. I wish your wonderful city and its leaders

Godspeed and the best,

Johnny A. Rodriguez Jr.
Executive Director
Association of Hispanic Municipal Officials

Edwards Aquifer Authority Director Emeritus District 7 Bexar County

Its my understanding Tejada and Perez sent in a ringer by the name of Mr. Rodriguez to apply at the FEDC board for interim and permanent FEDC director.

Keep digging board members, I believe you are on the right track and the information you will find will inform the residents here as to what Mr Perez and several others have done to the monies collected by the FEDC in the past. Was the 350k used to repair the road or just for some firm to consult them on what needs to be done? That would seem rather high to give all that money for advice. You guys are on the right track and agree to the way you are running things now. A great plan with priorities set by yourself is exactly what this town needs. I believe even when you decide new projects that you include the citizens to vote on what they would like to see come here. If we do not create revenues and jobs by bringing in new bussiness we will be missing the boat. Great job to all of the new members
