The Forest Hill Mayor was suspended for four months, a council member resigned, and the remaining council voted to fire the City Secretary. That vote didn't fly as now there weren't enough council members.
Think it's only in Forest Hill? Then maybe you should attend YOUR local council meeting.
Before the vote, Councilman Andrew Sanders resigned. "I cannot stand the bickering and infighting," he said.
During the meeting, he said the accusations were politically motivated. Thomas and Joubert want to run for mayor, he said.
"This is just a tragedy," he said. "This is a terrible situation for the city."
After Sanders left and the vote on Gosey, the remaining council members went into closed session to discuss a motion to fire Edwards. When they returned to public session, they voted 3-2 to fire her.
However, Masimini, the mayor pro tem, said the motion could not pass unless four members voted for it. Then he adjourned the meeting.
