San Benito City Manager Manuel De La Rosa’s performance was to be “routinely” evaluated during the Tuesday, Jan. 17, meeting of the city council, but after the administrative body met in executive session to discuss the agenda item, the matter was tabled until further notice.
De La Rosa has been the city’s chief administrator since 2015.
In 2022, he was the focus of an attempt by a group of concerned citizens who wanted to remove him from his post over what they claimed were arbitrary decisions concerning building and development policies, among other concerns.
The effort took place last September. Soon after, city officials implemented new rules in an effort to make it easier for taxpayers to work within those regulations.
In other business, the council heard the city’s first financial report ending Oct. 31, 2022.
The report, which is the first for Fiscal Year 2022-3023, showed city’s assets of $21,356,687 and liabilities of $16,293.371.
Its revenues were at $2,775, 194 and expenditures at $1,088,316.
