Here’s what we overheard at the April 9 Kenneth City Council meeting.
“We all have one goal. Strong positive community.” —Council Member Tony Chan
“Ficus trees are not a good tree.” —Town Attorney Ralf Brookes
“You look like a movie star, maybe you’ll be on the cover of The Gabber.” —Council Member Donald Kinney to a resident wearing a “Gulf of America” shirt
“I never watch basketball.” —Council Member Bob Arrison
What we overheard at the April 9 Kenneth City Council meeting is not all that happened. Read about two new ordinances, a code enforcement officer, and a follow up from the April 7 special meeting.
“Welcome back, Council woman Noble. Good to see you, hope you’re feeling alright.” —Resident Will Herbert
“After the fiasco on Monday, I have a vote of non-confidence in Council member Noble, and I would like to ask for her resignation.” —Resident Chris Vandercooi
“You’d be surprised that there are quite controversial tree cases that come up between neighbors.” —Town Attorney Brookes
The Gabber Newspaper? We Go There
In 1968, our founder, George Brann, started The Gabber Newspaper, then called the Gulfport Gabber, to hold Gulfport City Council accountable. Read more of our city council coverage, and learn about our policies on reporting, fact-checking, and funding.
