Community Development Director Jim Basham has resigned, according to Assistant City Manager Patrick Gallegos. Gallegos confirmed the resignation late Tuesday afternoon, May 16.
Gallegos said the development director’s resignation was not the result of any personnel investigation. Basham had been on paid administrative leave since February. Gallegos said Crystal Landavazo would continue to serve as interim Community Development Department director until a decision is made about the position. He said the city would provide no further comment as the resignation is a personnel matter.
