At a heated board meeting in Dolton, Illinois, Mayor Tiffany Henyard’s pick for police chief, Ronnie Burge Sr., was rejected by trustees, continuing a contentious battle over local leadership. Despite the rejection, Burge can serve in a temporary capacity for up to 30 days. Trustees voiced concerns over depleted village funds, revealing that basic supplies, like printer paper, are unaffordable, and voted to return luxury SUVs leased for Henyard’s use, costing over $374,000. Henyard, however, promised to veto this decision.
