Greenfield, California is experiencing Lake Worth's former woes...

From radio station KRKC Facebook page. Stanton is in the middle of another police related crisis which appears to be of her own making.

From KRKC News facebook page:

Soledad’s Police Chief fires back at Greenfield’s City Manager. Soledad Police Chief Eric Sills clarifies what his duties were in Greenfield before shared services were terminated. "I provided administrative services. I built two budgets for the police department, I handled internal affairs investigations, I hired personal for them, so it was not just simply answering 9-11 calls." Sills comments were in response to Greenfield City Manager, Susan Stanton, claiming that Chief Sills was not retained as a shared chief due to being limited to handling only the 9-11 response.

Tamera Marie Hurley: Chief Eric Sills is a man of Character & Integrity. He did an excellent job for the City of Greenfield, he went above and beyond. His accomplishments are to [sic] numerous to mention and Greenfield lost a great Chief, in my opinion, irreplaceable! This was done in the midst of part of the community harassing him in various ways to get their way, he never wavered in spite of them....he stood tall and carried on with excellence! It has never been about Eric Sills, it has been about a group of people in the community that cannot see truth when it slaps them in the face, a contract that needed clarification and city staff (upper management) from Greenfield & Soledad that could not agree to disagree agreeably to see their way clearly for the benefit of both cities, creating misleading communication and an environment of NO trust......hence out the door with transparency! In the end both cities lost in many ways and to the ones that were responsible for creating the circumstances that caused the decision to end the contract between the two cities.....be careful what you ask for you may be sorry for what you get! Again it has never been about Chief Eric Sills......unfortunately he has become the pawn and yet he still continues to move forward as a man of integrity does!

Tia Rachel: Open mouth insert the size 10 1/2 and just keep it there . That should at least muffle such ridiculous claims.

Tamera Marie Hurley: KRKC's January 13th post quoting Greenfield CM states the "management contract" dealt with 9-11 calls & administrative duties, which was the issue for ending the contract not Chief Eric Sills. The CM's could not agree to how the contract should be written and the Mayors would not provide direction. Results both cities loose [sic]!
