City Clerk

Rolando Briones holds numerous contracts with the City of San Antonio. At least 2 of those contracts appear to be in direct violation of both the City Charter and the City Ethics Code, both of which specifically prohibit City officials from holding .contracts with the City. The City explicitly names the Planning Commission as "more than advisory," (http://www.sananton io.g ov / clerk/boa rdsl ListofMoretha nAdvisoryBoa rds20 121 O.pdf).

Section 141 of the San Antonio City Charter states "No officer or employee of the city shall have a financial interest, direct or indirect, in any contract with the city" Section 2-52 of the San Antonio Ethics Code prohibits "Interests in Contracts"

*Descrfbe all documents or other materials that are relevant to the allegation:

June 23, 2011 - Briones Consulting & Engineering, LTD, awarded an on-call services contract from the City for up to $500,000 per year and renewable for 2 additional years. (source == http://www.sanantonio.gov/clerk!minutesI2011 /2011-06-23.pdf)

Last official meeting on the Planning Commission by Briones: October 12,2011

October 11,2012 - Briones awarded contract for Menger Creek drainage improvement project from 2012 bond package. (In fact sat on committee that drafted the package.)
