More Edgewood drama ensues..... It appears the Edgewood city council was not informed of Mayor,Charles Prater's decision to temporarily suspend operations of the Edgewood police department.
In Monday’s Edgewood City Council meeting, Ruby Smith and council member Louis Dunn criticized the manner in which the Edgewood Police Department was shut down for the four days leading up to the meeting. "This was one of the biggest things that has come up. The whole council should have been notified ahead, but as far as I know only the mayor and mayor pro-tem knew about what was going to take place," she said."It was an embarrassment to me, to the council and to the city," Dunn added. "It didn’t have to be done this way."
No action was taken by the council on the police department’s future operations with a new budget year beginning Oct. 1.
All five of the department’s full-time employees returned to work Monday after a closed meeting with Askew.
