Tuesday former Harlingen police Chief Danny Castillo told ACTION 4 a job as Santa Rosa's city manager and a political position in Harlingen pose no problem. 
     He said Santa Rosa city manager is a paid position and Harlingen city commissioner is not.
    Research reveals that's not true.
    In an email Harlingen city attorney Roxann Cotroneo told action 4 news quote...
"a Harlingen city commissioner is clearly a public officer and gets paid a set amount of $175 per month, and this amount is not limited to actual expenditures. The question is whether or not the Santa Rosa city manager is a public officer."
    Action 4 asked Santa Rosa city attorney Gilberto Hinojosa if the spot of city manager is a public office.
    He told us the position of city manager in Santa Rosa doesn't even exist.
    He said the position Castillo is a candidate for is actually "city administrator..."
    When asked if city administrator is a public office Hinojosa said he didn't know.
