Resources, News, and Announcements
From the Mayor’s desk – 1/2/26
Happy Friday…and Happy New Year!!
A very brief update this week with the holidays, but I had a few important items to share with you all today.
Human Resources:
We hired a new City Secretary at the end of December. Please join me in welcoming Shirley Archuleta to the Village of Surfside Beach staff. She had recently moved locally with her family from New Mexico and is rapidly learning all things State of Texas and Village of Surfside Beach. Feel free to stop into City Hall and say hello to Shirley and welcome her to Surfside.
A reminder that our posting for the new City Administrator position is live. Clear Career Professionals projects to have the position open and posted until late January. They will interview a slate of “semi-finalists” in February, and bring in the finalists for in person interviews at City Hall. They have suggested that we have an open forum with citizens as part of the process to allow the candidates to meet and hear from residents, and for you to ask questions of prospective City Administrator candidates. More to come.
Other items of interest:
We have the “Early Bird” beach passes for sale at City Hall starting today. They are available for half price ($15) only during the month of January. One per person please.
As always, I hope that you have a great day in wonderful Surfside Beach! Wishing you all a very happy and healthy New Year in 2026.
Thanks,
Zach
