 Manuel Rico, District 7
 Councilman Rico is serving as Vice-Chairman of the Council for the current year. He first entered public service roughly twenty years ago as a member of the Downtown Sertoma Club where he served as President. At about the same time he was asked to become chairman of the board of WTCI; since that time he has served numerous other boards including Blood Assurance, the American Red Cross, Goodwill Industries, Moccasin Bend, Mental Heath Association, Hamilton County Health Council, Boy Scouts, the Homeless Coalition, Southeast Tennessee Development Board, T.P.O. Board, Chattanooga Community Housing Development Organization, and was a past Chairman of the Human Rights Commission. Councilman Rico enjoys working with young people and also serves on the Metro YMCA board as well as Y-CAP. While he has never had any problem working hard with any group that in need of help, he particularly enjoys his spot on the board of the "Friends of the Festival" and the Riverbend celebration each year.
