This past Saturday, April 9, 2005, Commissioner Sergio "Chico" Rodriguez held his first "Town Hall" meeting at the Somerset Multipurpose Center. The notice posted within the community stated, "Commissioner greeting and talking with residents about his plans for the growth of Precinct 1." Additionally there were various services introduced to the Community. The notice distributed throughout the community stated the following in part:
· County staff will be on hand to provide information and assist residents on services available from Bexar County including housing, roads, utility assistance and more.
· Commissioner Rodriguez stated "I have been in office a little over three months and the experience has been wonderful so far, especially meeting with and providing services to the constituents of Precinct 1."
THE FEW, THE PROUD, THE SOMERSET VOLUNTEER FIRE DEPARTMENT!
During his presentation to the community, Commissioner Sergio "Chico" Rodriguez presented the Somerset Volunteer Fire Department with Certificates of Recognition. These certificates were presented to Chief, Gary Booth in honor of the entire Fire Department and their life saving efforts involving the Family of four who drove off the Elm Creek Bridge back on March 15, 2005. The two Somerset Volunteer Fire Fighters (Daniel Bermea and Joey Salazar) who performed CPR and revived the child prior to EMS arriving were individually recognized and presented with certificates as well.
