Mayor Pro Tem Myron Lowery is speaking before the City Council and he's asking to delay a vote to approve his pick for city attorney.
The council was supposed to vote to confirm Lowery's pick for city attorney, Veronica Coleman-Davis, in place of embattled City Atty. Elbert Jefferson.
But Lowery said in light of the court hearing tomorrow - Jefferson has sued Lowery, saying he overstepped his bounds by forcing him out of City Hall - Lowery would like to delay the vote to approve his city attorney for two weeks.
"I'm here to say I want to cooperate with the council," Lowery said. "I don't want anything that's going to be divisive. I don't want a media circus."
Lowery added: "I want us to work together."
Now the council is debating whether to delay approval of all nominees or approve only chief administrative officer Jack Sammons.
Great posting , You definately hit the
nail on the head, I just don't understand why people quite get it.
I'm not for sure how many individuals I've talked to concerning this very
thing in the past few days, and they just can't get it.
, Excellent post!
