Controversy has come to Colleyville’s city council election following a report by the Fort Worth Star-Telegram that ties a city council member to the registration of website domains that include the names of two rival candidates.
In February, four website domains featuring the names of city council candidates Amyn Gilani (GilaniForColleyville.com and AmynForCollyeville.com) and Kurt Meyer II (KurtForColleyville.com and MeyerForColleyville.com) were registered by Rigney Financial Services, according to the newspaper. The financial company’s principal is Wayne Rigney, the husband of Colleyville City Council Place 6 Member Callie Rigney.
