“As I mentioned in previous interviews, I was waiting on the city attorney’s opinion on this topic, and now it is clear,” said Chief Administrative Officer Gilbert Montaño. Montaño, is second in command to the mayor and could only be terminated by Cantrell.

” I will fulfill my duties as the CAO, and it’s important that I follow through on all the rules and policies that I have to all other employees,” Montaño said.
