It seems like since the late 80's and early 90's, Newton Falls council has been trying to fire Chief Carlson. What has he done that is so bad that a town has spent 20 years trying to chase him out. I would think if he was really that bad he would have been removed years ago. I just don't understand the constant threat to fire him. It almost sounds more of a personal assault that what is best for the community. Now, I will admit I am an outsider now and I don't have all the information. However, this has been going on for years now. Council will hire someone else and they will either leave due to duress or they will be forced out. Quite similar, to the City Manager position. It is a joke that Newton Falls has to go through so many City Managers.There is a political problem in Newton Falls to cause so much instability. I am glad, however, that Newton Falls politics isn't on the front page news anymore because it was really embarassing. Let the boys basketball team be our headlines they will make us proud.
