City Council questions fire chief, commissioner appointments BY NICK POWERS npowers@candgnews.com
WARREN — The Warren City Council meeting on May 20 illustrated the tensions between Mayor Lori Stone and some members of council. At the meeting, the reappointments of the city’s Fire
Chief Orrin Ferguson and its Fire Commissioner Wilburt McAdams were on the agenda. These appointments were originally on the May 13 agenda but were tabled. Stone, in an interview after the meeting, said she was surprised the appointments received so much pushback. “I was kind of taken aback when it was tabled,” Stone said. “This didn’t seem to be a very interesting appointment,
it was kind of routine.” Following the tabling of the appointments, Stone facilitated an opportunity for council members to have their questions answered. Councilman Henry Newnan and Councilwoman Melody Magee met with Ferguson and McAdams on May 19 to go over the appointment. See APPOINTMENTS on page 12A
