If he was a honest man he would step down. Wrong is wrong. I would not trust him as far as I could throw him. He has made a fool of himself.
ReplyDeleteSo how long will this go on without repercussions to the Mayor? This man dissed the entire community of St Clair and so far has gotten away with it. I cant believe the “Boss Hog” environment of this executive side of St Clair government. The alderman of St Clair, who are the Legislative side of St Clair Government, should be truly embarrassed of the Mayors actions of not paying his taxes. No action from the Alderman then means that they condone the actions of the Mayor…..
ReplyDeleteOk everybody, we no longer have to pay our personal property taxes because the Mayor didn’t have to.
