On the article Poll: Should Chickens be Allowed on Residential Property?

ReplyTo me 3 acres is a bit much. A much smaller requirement with the ability to petition for approval if your lot falls below the minimum. It is too hard to set a strict size because of the way some houses or property interact with the surroundings.

ReplyIt should matter as far as a decent explanation. The fact that it is over 10 years ago and what she states as income vs. what is reported as income seems questionable. Normally when there is smoke, there is fire, but she should come clean, explain what happened and move on. If she feels that she is living like the rest of us peasants and is just hard on her luck, then her circumstances could actually give her some much needed sympathy, if that is really the case. However, when you stay mum you just set yourself up for people to build and try their own case against her, without the facts.

ReplySounds like a really good thing, my concern is the impact that is going to have on traffic, especially at an already congested intersection

ReplyNot really an apology for what was said or retraction of the accusations. Defending everything you did is the same as saying "I'm sorry, but...". I will give him credit that this is at least, the most civil conversation thus far from his side. Now that this has been dropped, maybe we can get the Mayor to stop pouting and start leading so Snellville Government can start acting like grown ups all around and we can have a civil city government again.

ReplyImagine if you constantly postponed or ignored things you didn't like in your job. Imagine if Mayor Kautz acted this way in front of a judge when acting as an attorney. She would be kicked out of a court room so fast her head would spin.
Get it together! How much longer before the Judge rules?

ReplyI think the Judge will probably rule to some level, but given the current circumstances, I doubt the Mayor will accept the ruling if it is against her sole discretion to fire/hire.
As for Tony Powell, unless he needs the money, I'd run for the hills. That in no way is a commentary on his skills or abilities, but after someone is fire/hired that many times, with the very public knowledge that the Mayor of the city your represent, does not like you, it seems that doing the very best job for the city is not possible.
The principal side says stick it out and don't let the Mayor bully someone out of their position. However, what is best for the city is priority.
The interesting part would be if they city did hire a new attorney, how long before the Mayor runs them off.
