SAN ANGELO, TX — The City of San Angelo is hosting a retirement celebration honoring City Manager Daniel Valenzuela and recognizing his years of dedicated service to the City of San Angelo.
The event will be held from 10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. Friday, July 10, in the East Mezzanine of City Hall, 72 W. College Ave.
All City employees, friends and community members are welcome to attend.
Valenzuela was named San Angelo's City Manager in October 2012.
According to the City of San Angelo, since joining the City, Valenzuela has been at the forefront of efforts to secure more water, improve streets and other infrastructure, streamline development processes, make pay more competitive for City employees, and increase the number of first responders.
Valenzuela's administration secured water rights to the Hickory Aquifer and pursued an expansion of its well-field. That has positioned San Angelo to eventually have the capacity to pump, transport and treat up to 12 million gallons per day from the groundwater source.
Valenzuela was also the architect for an eight-year cycle to maintain every City street.
At the same time, his team has guided the rebuilding and repaving of San Angelo's worst streets under an $80 million, 10-year commitment made by the City Council.
These accomplishments have been made while maintaining a constant property tax rate throughout his tenure.
"We hope you can join us in celebrating Daniel and wishing him all the best in his retirement," the City of San Angelo stated.
