The commission wants City Council to determine San Antonio city manager pay, which would require voters to undo the charter change they approved in 2018.
City Manager Erik Walsh could be freed from the compensation and tenure restrictions that voters placed on his position almost six years ago as soon as November. The catch is that San Antonio voters would have to agree to undo a city charter amendment — imposing the salary cap and term limit on the city’s chief administrator — that they passed in November 2018 with 59% of the vote. On Thursday, the City Charter Review Commission preliminarily recommended asking voters to spike the amendment.
San Antonio City Council, mayor could get massive pay raises. You may be asked to approve them. “Our city manager is not competitively paid,” said Pat Frost, who retired as president of Frost Bank at the end of last year. Frost headed the subcommittee that devised the commission’s preliminary recommendations regarding city manager pay and tenure. Walsh earns less than seven of the 15 cities the subcommittee studied, all of which — with the exception of Phoenix — are smaller than San Antonio.
Could the highly political redistricting process be more independent? San Antonio may find out “We want this committee to be truly independent and the council simply appoint and then basically leave that individual alone to do the redistricting committee’s work,” Garza said.
