BOSSIER CITY, La A day after a rocky first city council meeting under new Mayor Tommy Chandler, one issue appears to be ironed out. But another is not.
There was some mysterious non-action on Chandler s appointees for chief administrative officer and city attorney. But it appears the attorney position has been resolved.
The city council will meet in special session at 2 p.m. Thursday. Council President Don Williams expects them to approve Chandler s pick for city attorney, Charles Jacobs, as well as to authorize Jacobs to hire Richard Ray as assistant city attorney.
Williams explained that the controversy on that issue Tuesday was centered over Chandler s moves to first reassign Police Chief Shane McWilliams, and later put him on administrative leave with pay. That s pending an internal investigation over alleged policy violations.
Bossier Council unanimously approves city attorney, assistant attorney appointments
