Salt Lake Tribune: Brigham City Mayor Escapes Another Call to Resign

Recklessly frittering away taxpayer dollars has become Brigham City's most recent claim to fame, of course

More "action" in the philandering Brigham City Mayor affair, (or perhaps we should more properly label it inaction) as the Salt Lake Tribune reports this morning that the gutless Brigham City Council couldn't muster even enough votes last night to pass a nonbinding resolution seeking disgraced Mayor Dennis Fife’s immediate resignation:

• Brigham City mayor escapes another call to resign

The Council's already"clipped his mayoral wings" and "stripped him" of "of his powers to hire, fire, supervise and discipline city officers and employees;" so for all intents and purposes he's nothing but Brigham City "dead wood." Nevertheless, the majority of the BC Council believes it's apparently just fine for him to be still drawing a salary for doing essentially nothing. Recklessly frittering away taxpayer dollars has become Brigham City's most recent claim to fame, of course.

We'll think about the Brigham City Council the next time we contemplate labeling our own Ogden City Council as "spineless," we suppose.
