Well, Cheryl Scott has submitted her long overdue resignation, effective 4/13/2010.
My original thoughts on this matter are contained here: http://shawneeray.blogspot.com/2010/01/great-scottis-she-moving.html
There was a follow up here:

which also included a link to an editorial in the Shawnee Dispatch who also called for her resignation way back when.
Now watch the games begin. I smelled a set up in my original post and that odor is still there.
Ms Scott devoted many years to serving the community. It's a shame that she allowed herself to be caught up in this end around maneuver which could result in the voters of Ward 1 not being able to select her replacement.
The council will have two options:
1. Select a replacement within 60 days of the resignation.
2. Allow it to go to a special election.
Because of the obvious machinations that occurred here, this needs to go to the citizens to allow them to choose. Heck, she bought her new house in Arizona in November..........and the Shawnee City Clerk even notarized the documents for her. It was obvious what was happening.
In 1996 Judge Judith Sheindlin wrote a book published by Harper & Collins entitled "Don't Pee On My Leg And Tell Me It's Raining". We've been getting peed on since November.
