Mayor of Georgetown, Hamilton Green, and councillors of the Mayor and City Council (MCC) yesterday walked out of the council’s statutory meeting after they refused to sit with Acting Town Clerk, Carol Sooba, reportedly the first time this has ever happened in the mayoralty.
The dramatic exit of the mayor and councillors brought an abrupt end to the meeting. When the meeting was called to order, Green informed Sooba that a number of councillors have expressed concern over her behaviour in failing to comply with the decisions taken by the council. He and other members of the council then walked out of the sitting leaving Sooba alone.
