Thursday night, the council, led by new Mayor Larry Cook, held the first of two budgetary meetings.
The problem with that was, you could hear a pen drop most of the meeting. Sounds of papers shuffling and whispers among the council were the main noises ringing throughout the room, with occasional comments from a council member.“It’s miraculous that before they couldn’t find $630,000 for the police,” said Richard Willsey, referring to the council considering shutting down Bonifay PD earlier this year due to budget concerns.
The crowd became rowdy after one particular individual was asked to be removed. Captain Chuck White with BPD took his time to escort one out as the crowd was saying it was their first amendment right to speak. Mayor Cook then ordered Cpt. White to ‘do his job,’ irritating the citizens even more. With so much change within the city over the last few months, many citizens feel the future of the city is in danger.
