The Buy-In (Graham Brothers #1)(55)

Mayor Whitehead is and always has been a total snake! Not that I blame him for leaving his shrew of a wife. No offense to shrews. Did he really buy an island? Who’s in charge of the town?

TheRealBob

From what I understand, the Grahams purchased the town. I’ll take football legacies over Mayor Whitehead any day of the week.

JB

I saw this coming years ago. No one listened during the last election but I bet you’re listening now! Billy Waters for mayor!

BagelBytes

Let’s not make this political.

JB

It literally IS political. The mayor is an elected official representing a particular party, therefore: political. I bet I can guess who YOU voted for.

Maybe we should just have Think Tank do it. He bought the town from the mayor! Tank Graham for mayor!!!

Howdy, folks! I see a lot of questions here and thought I’d step in as a representative of city council. We’ve called a special meeting and will hold a town hall next month to discuss and hear from Sheeters on our next steps in this unprecedented series of events. We encourage you to stay positive and not panic or spread baseless rumors. We’ll sort this out and keep this town running! Thanks so much for your patience and your support.

I don’t know about anyone else but that sounded like a very mayoral post. My vote is with Billy. The whole Graham clan can [censored for language] a whole [censored for language] and a [censored for language] horse too!

Vanz

Billy and the Waters clan can go stick a [censored for language] in their big, white [censored for language] [censored for language]. They stole our land and I’ll never forget their [censored for language] thievery and [censored for language].

Neighborly Mod Users JB and Vanz have been temporarily muted for violating community standards. This thread is also being closed, and I’d urge all members to take note of the official post from city council. Find the link below. Please remember to be kind and above all, Neighborly!

Subject: OFFICIAL RESPONSE FROM CITY COUNCIL RE: THE OFFICE OF MAYOR

City_Council_Official As many of you may know, Mayor Whitehead did effectively terminate his contract with the city and resign the office of mayor. He cannot be reached for comment. City council is holding a special meeting to discuss the next steps, and we will hold a Town Hall as soon as possible.

Until the office of mayor is filled, city council will act as the ruling body of government, per the Sheet Cake ordinance 4.11.

We are also aware of the sale of the downtown area of Sheet Cake to one Theodore Graham. We are having our legal team check for the validity of the sale and will address this as well in the Town Hall meeting. Until then, city council will also be making sure all ordinances are followed and any necessary permits are obtained for any work done or changes made.

City council takes very seriously the job you’ve tasked us with and we will make sure we preserve Sheet Cake.

-your elected officials

Chapter Twelve

Lindy

“Do animals have souls?”

One second, I’m asleep. The next, a voice is right in my ear, and I’m screaming and rolling out of bed. Jo perches on the edge of the mattress, looking apologetic.

“Sorry. Do you need an ice pack?”

“No,” I groan. The worst part isn’t the pain in my knee or the dust bunnies I now have a perfect view of under the bed, but the SIZE of the dust bunnies. They’re approaching real bunny size. Someone should really do something about that.
