Weslaco's Believe it or Not - The Odd

Page 1


Olga Noriega in every City Commission meeting plays into the camera and says, “The people are asking for

transparency” and, “You aren’t fooling anybody. The people know what you are doing” to the commissioners trying to SAVE WESLACO (you can watch for yourself at the City website www.weslacotx.gov). She announces this completely out of context to the business at hand. We will share the facts of who is “fooling” the people of Weslaco or at least trying to.

YOU BE THE JUDGE The City Commission & the City Secretary can and should disqualify Olga Noriega from running for City Commissioner. Olga Noriega has clearly not met two requirements. How can Olga enforce the charter that governs the City of Weslaco if she does not follow it herself?

State & City Requirements to Run for an Elected Position in Texas What are the requirements to run for office in the City of Weslaco?

Sec. 141.003. ...RESIDENCE REQUIREMENTS FOR HOME-RULE CITY OFFICE. (a)Different age and residence requirements from those prescribed by Section 141.001 may be prescribed by a home-rule city charter, but... a minimum length of residence in the state or city may not be more than 12 months immediately preceding election day.

Weslaco is Home-Rule and its local requirement is a minimum residence in the district you wish to serve of 6 months before election day. The local requirement and the State requirement were never met by Olga Noriega.

What are the fees for running for office for the City of Weslaco?

Sec. 2-193. Candidate filing fee. (5)b.A sworn affidavit from the Weslaco City Secretary or designee or minutes approved from the City of Weslaco evidencing that the person has performed not less than 50 or 250 hours of service, whichever is applicable, to the City of Weslaco by official means as an elected or appointed member of the governing body, board, committee, or commission or as a volunteer within certain departments without compensation during the calendar year immediately preceding the person’s submission of a timely application for a place on the ballot or other instrument causing an election to occur. Olga Noriega did not pay her filing fee.

The PROBLEM with her submission is that they are NOT VOLUNTEER HOURS. The City Commission is a paid position.

should olga follow the rules? If you think Olga Noriega should uphold the rules that govern the City of Weslaco please call one or all of our City Commissioners, City Secretary, or City Manager and say, “Olga should be disqualified to run for City Commissioner!” Did you know the City Commission or the City Secretary can disqualify Olga for NOT meeting the requirements necessary to run for a City Commission seat, yet again? Why is everyone else mandated to follow the rules but Olga is not? Below are all the direct phone numbers to OUR City Government:

debe seguir olga las reglas? Si usted piensa Olga Noriega debe cumplir las normas que rigen la ciudad de Weslaco por favor llame a uno o todos nuestros Comisionados de la Ciudad, Secretaria de la Ciudad, o administrador de la ciudad y dígales: “Olga debería ser descalificado para correr para comisionado de la ciudad!” ¿Sabías que la Comisión de la Ciudad o la Secretaria de la Ciudad pueden descalificar a Olga por no cumplir con los requisitos necesarios para postularse para un asiento Comisión Municipal, una vez más? ¿Por qué los otros siguen las reglas, pero Olga no? A continuación se presentan todos los números de teléfono directos a nuestro gobierno municipal:

Is the City Commission of Weslaco compensated for their service?

Sec. 13. Compensation. The mayor and commissioners shall receive salaries. Clearly stated in Sec 13 under “Compensation” it states all City Commissioners including the Mayor are compensated.

Why is Olga Noriega on the ballot for November if she has not even completed her requirements to run for office?

Who can declare a candidate ineligible to run for office?

145.003. ADMINISTRATIVE DECLARATION OF INELIGIBILITY. (a) Except for a judicial action in which a candidate’s eligibility is in issue, a candidate may be declared ineligible only as provided by this section. (c) A candidate in an election other than the general election for state and county officers may be declared ineligible before the beginning of early voting by personal appearance by the authority with whom an application for a place on the ballot for the office sought by the candidate is required to be filed. (d)The presiding officer of the final canvassing authority for the office sought by a candidate may declare the candidate ineligible after the polls close on election day (f) A candidate may be declared ineligible only if: (1) the information on the candidate’s application for a place on the ballot indicates that the candidate is ineligible for the office; or (2) facts indicating that the candidate is ineligible are conclusively established by another public record.

The City Secretary had the same facts in front of her when deciding to allow Olga Noriega elligibility to run the office. The facts clearly state Olga has not qualified on two areas: residence & application submission. The City still has the ability to fix her mistake. Rules are to be followed and leaders are to lead by example.

Sea usted el juez La Comisión de la Ciudad y la Secretaría de la Ciudad puede y debe descalificar a Olga Noriega de postularse para un cargo. Olga Noriega claramente no ha cumplido con dos requisitos. ¿Cómo puede Olga cumplir la Carta que rige la Ciudad de Weslaco si ella no lo sigue a sí misma?

Por encima de los requisitos estatales y municipales para postularse para un cargo electo en Texas. Usted tiene que vivir en el Distrito 3 un mínimo de 6 meses antes de la jornada electoral y usted tiene que pagar la tasa de solicitud porque Weslaco Comisión de la Ciudad es un cargo remunerado. Olga no ha cumplido ninguno de esos requisitos.
