Former City Councilor Marty Justus was removed from an Ontario City Council meeting on May 18, following his public comments, and the request of a current councilor to review what was written on the signs. Justus has been attending council meetings with his signs for the past several meetings.
Councilor John Kirby called for the point of order, asking to clarify what actions would constitute a disruption by an audience member and warrant being censured by the meetingâs âpresiding officer,â who is the mayor, as it pertained to potentially slanderous remarks being presented by Justus.
âMr. Justus is now communicating with the council, he needs to stop or be removed from this council,â stated Kirby.

Ontario City Council had many speakers during the public comments portion of its regularly scheduled meeting on Tuesday night, with the majority speaking about fines regarding ordinance violations. It is noteworthy that one of those speakers was former Dallas Brockett, former Ontario Code Enforcement Officer.
He started by saying he wanted to discuss code enforcement.
âI know thereâs been a little bit of talk about not refilling my position when I left,â said Brockett.
He said that decision was made by Ontario Police Chief Steven Romero.
Brockett went on to say he also wanted to discuss âundoing everything [he] worked so hard on to try to accomplish and make this city cleaner.â

Ontarioâs mayor is not willing to pay the civil penalty that was handed to him in November regarding an ongoing issue with weed overgrowth for a property on Southeast 11th Avenue owned by his company Eldorado Investments, a local company which invests in real-estate projects. The reason: technicalities â seven of them to be exact.
In documents filed with Malheur County Circuit Court on Jan. 11 on behalf of Riley Hillâs Eldorado Investments to appeal the $500 fee, seven procedural errors by the cityâs Code Enforcement Department are alleged, including that he was not the person responsible but that it was a squatter. Additionally, he says the property had already been cleaned up by the time he got the penalty.
