Legal Fees and legal representation for the City

I hear the Cities legal expsenses are to high  and we should quit using our City Attourney as much as we do. I am going to give my opinion on this subject. This is my opinion and know one elses. It will be the way I vote on this type of issue.

The reason our legal fees are as high as they are is because we are having our City Attourney do a lot of paper work on issues mandated by the first audit, firing the old City Clerk, appealing the unemployment payments payed to the old City Clerk for being fired (which the City won), legal work being done now on problems that have come to the councils attention. These problems will be corrected in the near future. I will be giving my opinion in those areas as they arise. We are going to have these types of legal fees  until the council and mayor start doing the jobs that they were elected to do. We have council members and a mayor that think our ordinances, State Statutes, and Federal Regulations don't mean anything. This is why the City should have a good attourney and why they should use an outside source to do the budget this year and next year. The outside source we used this year has corrected a lot of problems we had in the 2014 audit and things that were done wrong in previous councils.  See you at the  regular council meetings. We need your input and oversight.
