The five candidates seeking two at-large seats on the San Antonio River Authority's board of directors have extensive public policy backgrounds.
Bexar County voters will choose among a handful of candidates with extensive public policy backgrounds to fill two at-large seats on the San Antonio River Authority’s 12-member board of directors., which includes a slate of 14 proposed amendments to the Texas Constitution as well as a handful of elections in Bexar County municipalities. Early voting began Monday and will continue through Nov. 3.
The river authority is introducing a new term system this election cycle, so the candidate who receives the most votes will serve a four-year term, while the runner-up will be granted a two-year term, said Katye Brought, communications manager for the river authority. The variation in term lengths ensures that no more than half the board is up for election in a single cycle, she said.A U.S. Navy veteran, Yglesias served in Chicago, Washington, D.C.
Yglesias serves as an outings leader for Latino Outdoors and acts as a consultant for the river authority, the National Park Conservation Association and The Nature Conservancy. “I’m familiar with the organization with how it operates, and also how the River Authority works with their board direction,” she said.
He moved to Washington, D.C., to work for the National Electrical Manufacturers Association and recently retired as senior conformity assessment manager. During his time in D.C., Solis served as chair and executive secretariat on multiple national and international committees and led an international nonprofit with 300 members.
