Doing the right thing

The City Manager in Largo, Florida, the city where Lake Worth's City Manager, Susan Stanton, used to be at the helm, just fired its police chief. The beef? An officer fixed a ticket, violating two policies, and the police chief did not fire him--gave him a 3 day suspension instead.

We like to see strong city managers who do the right thing. Perhaps Largo is just lucky in finding city managers with the right stuff (courage and integrity) as that same character trait was lacking in its elected officials in general who put our city manager through the ring.
