Ryder Stands Up Protest Over No Bond Measure In City Council
Ryder leads a strong protest against an amended bond ordinance as City Council debates court bonds for police chief and jailers. Hyder, Weber, and others argue for or against waiving bonds, while mayor and administration face scrutiny over a 40 year old provision and a potential refund of previous bonds. A contentious session ends with the ordinance passing and a demand for immediate bonds for jailers.
