Mayor forfeiture

Councilmember Mills said she was told the forfeiture statement couldn't be changed or voted on, but the city attorney clarified it was drafted by the former mayor and was subject to council review — and she described being falsely reported to authorities as meeting the mayor during a closed-session matter while out of town.

The former mayor addressed the council, saying she had "a thousand percent plan" to reinstate the two employees, that the reinstatement did not go through, and criticizing the council for spending its time focused on her rather than on city needs.
