Timmons says he placed a tracker on the police chief’s truck and a surveillance camera on a car wash pointing at city hall where the chief’s office is because the mayor’s signature goes on the chief’s time sheets and he had concerns about them.
“The mayor’s position is not just shaking hands and kissing babies,” Timmons said.
But the mayor says he did not expect officers’ signatures on a bunch of resignation letters and did not expect the entire full-time Milner police department to resign effective Wednesday, Oct. 28.
The mayor wants to and says he’ll be able to keep a police department. In the meantime, the sheriff will patrol.
Milner Police Chief Lamar Bunn says he’s done nothing wrong.
Imo public servants should not be unionized for they are already in a larger union; the government
The government isn’t a union. A union is an organization within a workplace that’s controlled by the workers. The government is controlled by the voters, the vast majority of whom don’t work for the government.
That is the union in question. Public service should be something that is controlled entirely by the voters. It is not a career to enrich yourself, it is a service. And if you have grievances with the voters, your bosses, you need to take it to them directly.
