I find this so interesting.

Mr. Lemont seems to want to resolve things. At least he attacked the overdue water bills with gusto. I applaud his efforts with that. Trying to collect 2 million plus that was obviously left by the last council and city manager. Makes me wonder if they let those bills go because of who they belonged to.

As far as the Chief, I think that show last night just gave the Chief some added ammunition for his lawsuit against the city. I don't believe that it is the entire "membership' of the union that is unhappy with the chief, maybe a handful that aren't getting their way is more like it. In a whole, I believe the police department has many good men and women who serve and I thank them for doing a great job.

Mr. Cunha, YOU nominated Mr. Lemont for the city manager position. Why would you want to start looking for someone new when you have someone more than capable of doing the job. After all, he just went after 2 million of monies that is owed to this city. That is something the last council and city manager probably overlooked on purpose because of who was on that list. Why does it now seem you, Mr. Cunha, have decided to jump ship and swim with the sharks? I for one, will NOT be voting for you next time.
