LINCOLN – Lincoln Water Supt. Romeo Mendes resigned on Monday in the midst of rising discontent between the superintendent and Lincoln’s Board of Water Commissioners.
Rumors of trouble between the two parties were fueled last month when Mendes was seen being forcibly escorted out of the Water Department building, with Lincoln police officers at the scene. He was not charged with any crimes.
According to several sources close to the matter, a recent request by the water superintendent for a salary increase was denied by the Lincoln Water Commission, but Mendes allegedly moved to give himself a raise anyway.
He was placed on administrative leave by the commission.
