SAN ANTONIO – Plans to redevelop the Alamo Plaza must move forward with a new design and leadership team, according to an announcement by San Antonio Mayor Ron Nirenberg.
Nirenberg said he needed a leader that is on board with changes to the project and announced the removal of District 1 Councilman Roberto Trevino as the lead person in the committee.
“The position that Councilman Trevino has taken, which is that the Cenotaph can’t move then the Alamo Plan is dead, is not tenable. It’s not gonna move,” Nirenberg said.

San Antonio Mayor Ron Nirenberg is announcing new leadership for the project to redevelop the Alamo Plaza. Nirenberg on Monday said City Councilman Roberto Trevino is no longer the head of the committee. Nirenberg has appointed Councilwoman Rebecca Viagran to lead the project. In September, the Texas Historical Commission denied the committee permission to move the Cenotaph. Trevino said that decision killed the Alamo Plan. Nirenberg says the project will move ahead with a new leader and a new design.

After Friday’s deadline for filing, city records showed 81 people are running for a spot on the City Council in a race defined by the human and economic toll inflicted on the city by COVID-19 as well as a reckoning over the power of the San Antonio Police union in the wake of a public demand for law enforcement reform.

New research suggests that Pfizer s COVID-19 vaccine can protect against a mutation found in two contagious variants of the coronavirus that erupted in Britain and South Africa. Britain races to vaccinate more than 15 million people by mid-February, and in an effort to ensure vaccines get to the right places at the right times, along with the syringes, alcohol swabs and protective equipment needed to administer them, the government has called in the army.
