Martin and the Jacqueline Craig case. City Attorney Fullenwider's statement is as follows:
Mayor and Council, over the past three weeks during Citizen Presentations, there have been
statements indicating misunderstandings about the legal authority of the Council and the City
Manager under the Civil Service Law to fire Officer Martin. Neither Council nor City Manager
have the legal authority to fire or discipline Officer Martin because of Civil Service rules and
regulations. That authority lies with the Police Chief and he has made his disciplinary decision.

situation further.
