On Tuesday, Aug. 16 the Port Isabel City Com­missioners and Mayor held a special meeting to approve directors, du­rations of the zone and monies paid to the de­velopers for the Modern Venice (The Fingers) project.

After presentations from residents of the dis­trict, the board voted to appoint David Woolver­ton, Gabriel Vanounou, Edward Mesa, Albert Welbel, and Santiago Cantu as directors for the fingers district.

“One of the main things those initial directors must do is submit a capi­tal improvement budget for a period not to ex­ceed five years, and then that has to be approved by the city manager and the consulting engineer,” said Commissioner Mar­tin Cantu.
