Commissioner Kemp on John Dingfelder
Former City Councilman John Dingfelder was a dedicated & caring public servant. His resignation is a travesty. I stand with those supporting Councilman Dingfelder as he stood for the community.
From Creative Loafing: "I stand here with a heavy heart this morning because of Councilman Dingfelder's resignation, we lost the body that we elected," of Neighborhoods (THAN) told council. "The bullying of our local officials is sickening."
I'm fully with attn. James Shaw. The City of Tampa should never again refuse to represent a member sued under Chapter 119 -
Sunshine law.
Local attorney James Michael Shaw Jr. tweeted that the forced resignation of Dingfelder, "sets a terrible precedent for the removal of elected officials by private individuals with personal agendas.
From Creative Loafing: "If not closed off as an option, expect our [city] to employ it again and again, against anyone with the backbone to stand up to them," Shaw wrote. "Tampa City Council should immediately pass an ordinance requiring the City to defend elected officials sued under Chapter 119."
