Petersburg roils with turmoil

There’s trouble in Petersburg. Petitions are being circulated to remove Petersburg Mayor W. Howard Myers.

Telfair, although some are questioning whether the action came at a legal meeting. All of this comes as residents are venting over the way the city is being managed, over sky-high water bills and about property tax bills that are arriving close to the deadline for payment.
