Jesse Espinoza, the former Kyle police sergeant fired for insubordination who then sued the city in attempt to get his job back, has dropped his bid for a spot on the city council after “speaking with my attorney.” In a separate action, Ashlee Bradshaw, active in the Plum Creek neighborhood, has filed to oppose Planning & Zoning Commissioner Tim McHutchion in the District 4 race.
With the deadline for filing just four days away, that leaves five persons running in three races. Mayor Travis Mitchell and District 2 council member Tracy Scheel are seeking re-elections to second terms. Scheel is opposed by Yvonne Flores-Cale, who failed to unseat council member Dex Elllison in last year’s council election. McHutchion, the manager of a local self storage location and a member of the city’s Planning & Zoning Commission, and Bradshaw, active in the Plum Creek Homeowners Association and the Negley Elementary School PTA, are opposing each other for the seat being vacated by Alex Villalobos who defeated McHutchion three years ago, right around the time Bradshaw moved to Kyle.
Espinoza sent an e-mail to City Secretary Jennifer Holm yesterday saying “After reviewing the City of Kyle City Charter and speaking with my attorney I would like to withdraw my name from the District 2 Council seat.”
