Fed up citizens of Shepherd look to impeach city council members  http://www.yourhoustonnews.com/eastex/news/fed-up-citizens-of-shepherd-look-to-impeach-city-council/article_a91c2727-ba46-56e9-93ec-a258cad6d13b.html


Read Adam Knight's essay (linked below) and see if Medford should consider impeachment proceedings at some time in the near future.

After they were seated Foerster billed the city $2,983, with $940 of that for a special city council meeting to discuss the termination of then Shepherd Police Chief Chris Simmons.
The termination of Simmons again became an issue in August when Foerster drove to Shepherd for another special city council meeting, which was called by Williams, Barnhill and Thoms.

Barnhill, Thoms and Williams failed to appear at the August 6 meeting to discuss Simmons’ termination, but Foerster came and it cost the city $560.


Altogether, $2,660 of the fees Foerster billed to the city were directly related to either a San Jacinto County District Attorney’s office investigation or the firing of Simmon

It's like living in a Mickey-Mouse town. I think all of them should be impeached, the mayor, all the council members. You would think your in elementary school with the way all these folks are carrying on. To me they all are embarrassing. I would think the citizens of Shepherd should think long and hard about who is elected in the future. I think Mr. Barnhall wants to run the city. NOT! I attended one of these meetings and Mr.Williams and Cronin are about two of the most uninterested members I've ever seen. Please post future meeting dates and times so we can all go for entertainment, it beats the comedy channel.
