OGDENSBURG – A group of Ogdensburg residents has submitted a letter to city council requesting the termination of the City Manager.
Margaret Haggerty, who represents a group called the Concerned Citizens of Ogdensburg, has been circulating the letter and collecting signatures online for the past week, she said she has over 100 and hopes to have 300 when she presents the letter Monday at the city council meeting.
The lengthy letter criticizes City Manager Steven Jellie for having “no formal education that would suggest qualification for the City manager.”
The letter also criticized Jellie’s failure to move to the city in a timely fashion, though Jellie has recently purchased a home in the city. He was hired as the city manager in September of 2020 after serving as interim city manager for several months.
