Austin City Council has tapped Jesus Garza to serve as the city’s interim leader. He was city manager when Kirk Watson began his first term as mayor in 1997.
PUBLISHED 4:00 PM CST Feb. 15, 2023AUSTIN, Texas — Austin City Council has tapped a well-known former city manager to serve as the city’s interim leader. The search is on to replace Spencer Cronk,following outrage over the city's response to the power outages after February's ice storm.
Garza was one of the last homegrown city managers in Austin. Both Garza and his successor, Toby Futrell, spent most of their early careers in the Austin city government. Garza joined the city in 1978. Stymied in efforts to advance in the Austin city government, Garza left for a stint as an assistant city manager in Corpus Christi before returning to Austin to lead the Texas Water Commission.
