Treviño embraces controversy in District 1 City Council race Brian Chasnoff, Staff writer FacebookTwitterEmail San Antonio Board of Realtors The polarizing issues of homelessness, police reform and redevelopment of the Alamo are among those animating the City Council race in District 1, where Councilman Roberto Treviño is seeking re-election to a final term and attempting to fend off five challengers. Most of Treviño’s opponents in the downtown district have never held an elected office. Only Lauro Bustamante, 70, has won a past race; the attorney was elected to the board of the Edwards Aquifer Authority in 2006 but has since left the post.
