Notable, given the headline, is that the city manager also quit, likely due to the mayor mixing personal funds and city business while not consulting with the city’s legal counsel. While I applaud the mayor’s willingness to apply Flock methodology to Flock’s constituency, I’m not celebrating this one like I would be if it wasn’t under such defective circumstances.

Why does a village of 772 people need a mayor, a "city" manager, a police chief and 5 police officers?
