The removal hearing for Corpus Christi Mayor Paulette Guajardo will continue Thursday and Friday.
The mayor is expected to present defense against a citizen petition’s claims of misconduct related to approval of a $2-million tax incentives agreement for a hotel development project.
After the hearing concludes, six council members will serve as the tribunal that will determine the outcome of Guajardo’s future in office.
The last time a Corpus Christi elected official faced removal from office was in 1987.
