The City of San Angelo received resignation letters from its Fire Marshall and Emergency Operations Manager in the last week. Fire Marshall Ross Coleman resigned unexpectedly last Tuesday. Emergency Operations Director Steve Mild resigned to work in the oil field. Mild's last day is June 15th. Fire Chief Brian Dunn has two key public safety positions to fill.
Last fall the city saw the exodus of Street and Bridge leadership, as well as staff. That set of resignations impacted the city's ability to rehab roads using the $1.2 million Benedetti machine. It's not clear if the city has its Street and Bridge division back to full staffing, given interim leadership remains in place after Superintendent Paul Hathaway resigned in November 2018. Stormwater Superintendent Stephen Conley is serving as Interim Road and Bridge Superintendent.
It remains to be seen how Coleman's and Mild's leaving will impact public services.
