And really that is what the firing was probably about;
It’s possible the job description might be changed so that the new clerk is more of an administrator versus somebody who engages on policy matters.
I am still baffled why they had a problem with someone who COULD give legal advice (a differing opinion then the city attorney’s office which has to be in line with the mayor’s agenda, this was all too clear when the ethics complaint got thrown out). And someone who brought incredible transparency to the city council’s operations. Now they just want an administrator? Why not save the taxpayer’s money and get a temp to do the job for $10 an hour? Pathetic. I salivate for the day it is made public why she was fired. You will see just how ignorant and naive the five councilors who voted for her dismissal are. I also think it should be made public before they hire another clerk.
