Dear Editor,
I applaud Susan Lynn’s article titled “City council: like a bad movie,” which appeared in Saturday’s paper. Susan hit the nail on the head with her comments regarding city attorney Chuck Apt, plus the remarks made about Ken Rowe and Kendall Callahan.
The matter of the old IGA building once owned by Mr. Callahan and his legal representative being Chuck Apt was not only what I consider a conflict of interest but as Susan put it, “unethical.” Are there more cases like this we should be made aware of?
My hat’s off to John McRae for his comments concerning the two council members he described as being “toxic.” I, too, think they should resign their positions on the council.
Since the council has never explained the reason behind the firing of Judy Brigham, I hope she has legal representation to fight the city for the benefits to which she was entitled. Cannot the council see that this will cost the city more in the long run than if they would reinstate her and give her the benefits she deserves.
Linda Watson,
A concerned citizen,
Iola, Kan.
