A subcommittee of the Austin City Council recommended Broadnax on Tuesday evening.
"I am honored and I look forward to the city council’s vote to allow me to serve as Austin’s next city manager," Broadnax said in a statement on Tuesday night."With the continued growth of our state’s capital city, I am mindful of the critical needs we must urgently address and I am committed to doing so with a collaborative, transparent, inclusive and equitable approach.
"There are a lot of things that have happened in Dallas … that I've had to experience as a city manager in my brief time there that some managers, frankly, don't get to deal with or have to deal with in their entire career," Broadnax said."And those things happen monthly for me. And so I think I'm built to run a city of large sizes.
