Mayor Lenox, you're not Secretary-General of PTC Politburo

Lenox, you're not Secretary-General of PTC Politburo

Mayor Lenox, once

again you prompt me to write you a letter concerning the

manner in which you perform the duties of your elected

office.

I previously took issue

with you over your statement, "If you don't vote,

you don't count and I won't listen." Well, now it

appears you won't listen to Mr. Steve Brown regardless of

whether he voted or not.

Within the past week you

have made the following statements (not verbatim - but

close enough):

"Nobody knows

Peachtree City better then I do."

"This is my meeting

and I will run it the way I want to."

I have no doubt that you

know this city very well, but I am not so sure you know

it better then anyone else. Obviously your ego would not

allow yourself to believe otherwise.

Mr. Mayor, you are not

the Secretary General of the Central Committee of

Peachtree City, nor is the City Council the Politburo. It

is not your meeting and how dare you as an elected

official presume it to be so.

I find your conduct during

the city council meeting, when you refused to listen to

Mr. Steve Brown, a display of arrogance of the highest

order. And to quote Kipling, "You haf too much ego

in your cosmos."

I and many of my fellow

citizens will be most happy when you leave office.

I intend to financially

support Mr. Steve Brown in his fight against a frivolous

law suit. It is a sad day in our fair city and country

when a man cannot speak his mind without fear of

retribution from the same law firm that represents the

city.

If Mr. Brown was truly

libelous in his letters, which he was not, then I could

understand it. It is pure and simple retribution against

an outstanding citizen who truly cares for his community.

Richard D. Downing
