Manuel Gonzalez-Gonaga
Just when a county commission meeting
is about to become so boring that a root
canal would be preferable, you can count
on him to liven things up. Hell amble up to
the microphone, ritualistically shuffle his
papers and adjust his glasses, and
introduce himself (for the tenth or twelfth
time that day) in his trademark staccato
style: "My name is Manuel Gonzalez-
Gonaga...." Then he'll proceed to savage
the commissioners for neglecting their
duties and responsibilities to the citizenry.
Often he'll even inject some humor, though
it's unclear whether that's intentional. How
commissioners overlooked Gonzalez- ,
Gonaga during their search for a new 6t�
cTeO manager remains a mvstery and a
great disappointment.
