The San Antonio City Council on Oct. 2 approved a resolution appointing Councilmember Ivalice Meza González to serve on the Bexar County Appraisal District board for a term beginning Jan. 1, 2026, and ending Dec. 31, 2029.

Councilmembers first considered a motion to postpone action on the nomination to Oct. 9; that postponement failed on a roll-call vote, with Councilmembers Macky Rodríguez, Villagrán and Mayor Gina Ortiz Jones voting yes and Councilmembers Munguía, Castillo, Alderete Gabito, Spears and White voting no. Councilmember Galván’s recorded vote was not specified in the transcript. After the postponement failed, a motion was made to substitute Meza González as the city’s nominee in place of Councilmember Terry Castillo; the council approved the substitution and then approved the resolution as amended.

The item had drawn procedural questions from council members about quorum and scheduling; staff members identified only as Andy and Debbie answered questions about notice and attendance for the Oct. 9 meeting. Several council members publicly thanked Castillo for bringing the nomination forward and thanked Meza González for agreeing to serve. As Councilmember White put it during remarks, “It is a very important and hard job,” noting the responsibilities of the post.

Action details recorded on the agenda show the appointment covers the four-year term January 2026 through December 2029. The transcript does not record a final roll-call tally for the substitution and main-motion votes; the council announced the motions passed.

The council did not provide additional implementation steps or staffing assignments tied to the appointment in the public discussion recorded in the meeting minutes.
