Still not clear as to what actually happened but the best I have gleaned so far is that Mayor Cole put Beth Ponce on administrative leave last week with Maintenance and Environmental Services Manager Sean Henry temporarily assuming her duties. Ponce then came in this week, cleaned out her desk and resigned. I've tried contacting her but no luck so far. If anyone has further information, please post it in comments or email me privately.
The mayor doesn't have the power to hire/fire/punish city employees other than the City Clerk. All others report to the City Manager. If hizzonah was responsible, Gill stepped aside.
