RE: Removal of Resident Commissioner Appointee
Dear Mr. Favila,
I am writing this letter to request City Council consideration regarding the removal of Resident Commissioner Carlos Roldan. Mr. Roldan was appointed by the Calexico City Council on October 20, 2021 for a two (2) year term that expires on October 19, 2022. I have made several attempts to contact Mr. Roldan via telephone, text and email to which he has not responded. Due to Mr. Roldan's lack of attendance at the last three (3) regularly scheduled Board of Commissioner's Meetings, your consideration would be greatly appreciated. Per Housing Authority of the City of Calexico (HACC) By-laws "unexcused absence for three (3) consecutive regular or special meetings shall constitute neglect of duty and shall be cause for removal from office by the City Council". HACC Commissioners were advised of this action.
Please feel free to contact me at 760-357-3013, ext. 12 should you require further information.
Respectfully,
Teri Nava
Executive Director
