Gerbracht going to RECA
Wednesday, October 22, 2014 by Elizabeth Pagano
There are big changes ahead at City Hall, and things are already beginning to shift around. Yesterday, the Monitor learned that Heidi Gerbracht, who is the longtime aide for Council Member Bill Spelman, will be leaving Spelman’s office soon. After a few weeks off, Gerbracht will join the Real Estate Council of Austin as its vice president of public policy. She has been at Spelman’s office since he was elected in 2009. Previous to that, Gerbracht worked for Council Member Jennifer Kim and Assistant City Manager Robert Goode. We at the Monitor wish her luck in her new position, and wish Spelman luck carrying on without her.
