In a farewell address Monday, outgoing San Antonio Mayor Ron Nirenberg congratulated Mayor-elect Gina Ortiz Jones and ticked off his administration’s accomplishments while admitting much work remains to be done. During a roughly 20-minute speech in front of City Council, Nirenberg pointed to the city’s expanded Pre-K for SA, his Ready to Work job-training initiative, the city’s first-ever affordable housing bond and VIA’s rapid transit Green and Silver Lines as legacies he hopes the public will remember.
