Fostoria Mayor Discusses Recent Firings

11/22/17 – 5:19 A.M.

Fostoria’s mayor says he’ll work harder to include council members in personnel decisions. The Courier reports Eric Keckler made the comments during Tuesday’s council meeting. They came after the city parted ways with former City Engineer Dan Thornton and Zoning Inspector Sandy Coleman last week.

Keckler says the moves were, “an administrative decision meant as a reorganization process for the city.” He added that the administration has a reorganization plan in place. Keckler will present the plan to council in its entirety in the future.

Keckler has said the firings were for operational reasons. He added the goal is more efficiency from the city.
