Note that she was forceful about not having an appointment from the start. There was no reason for her to say and vote any differently from that stance No on all nominations, thus leaving the decision up to Sandoval, Stanckiewitz and McNaboe. She was livid that the "Rules" changed and the council could come to a joint agreement. It is clear she has no respect for Walt Stanckiewitz. Soon it will be clear that she has no respect for any of her co council members who she feels personally attacked because they were able to come to a consensus and make an appointment. Her tantrum was unprofessional, and directed at the best qualified Candidate who by the way folks had nothing to do with the compromise struck by Sandoval, McGuire and Stanckiewits. Yet, Garcia had to spew venom toward Robles and Stanckiewitz to ease her own rage at the fact that a compromise was reached.
This conduct needs to be carefully evaluated by the voters and citizens of Grand Terrace.
The decision should have been made by asking WHO would be best qualified to aid solve the MOST IMPORTANT PROBLEM facing GT in the Next Year. BUDGET BUDGET BUDGET... the answer to that was Sylvia Robles and the Majority of Citizens know that, but because of Garcia and McNaboe we have selected a guy that may be a Nice Fellow but who lacks the expertise to handle that the biggest problem nearly all who spoke identified as being Number 1 of all Problems.
I have a problem with that logic. It is not an example of selfless service to the community. It is petty, and in the end may hurt the progress of our city to self sustainability.
