In reply to Preston Scott. Or, a referendum to more clearly specify the authority, limitations of authority, prohibition on outside employment and political activity. Specify term limits, staff, travel, leave approval. Require regular, monthly public forums, allow for recall votes.

I wholeheartedly agree with Preston Scott on this. Need commissioners representing all of Tallahassee and do not need a Mayor position.

That “food group” definitely spoiled during the Hurricane Hermine recovery.

In reply to WhiskeyTangoFoxtrot. Or, create and pass a referendum to do away with the position. Gillum's multiple occupations proves there is no need for it. Go back to rotating Commissioners in and out of the Mayoral title. While we are at it, let's go with dividing the city into districts. Once you get past Scott Maddox living in the county (everyone knows it) most live fairly close together. Very little actual community representation.

I totally agree, WhiskeyTangoFoxtrot and Barney Bishop III.
Even though the demeaning “food groups”, I’m sure that all the “food group” considerees is jumping up and down, with their hand in the air, saying, “pick me! Pick me!”
There is no dignity in politics.

I wholeheartedly agrree WhiskeyTangoFoxtrot…send him to DC where he can do less damage…he’s not focused here and that’s why he spent over $400,000 of taxpayer money hiring 9 aides to do the work that Tallahasseans elected him to do to begin with…good riddance…the sooner he leaves the better for all of us!

The only good thing that may come if Lying Hillary get elected is maybe she will appoint him to some position in D.C. and we will be able to elect a mayor who is focused on Tallahassee, not Democratc party politics.
