THIS IS A LIE
"We also know that Council Member Brooks bought two lots from the Housing Authority after making a motion to move the $580,000 out of the General Fund over to the Housing Authority and then sold it back the Housing Authority for a profit."

He may have sold them to the Housing Authority, but to claim that he bought them after making a motion is simply not true. Those lots we purchased in 2012, DB 1778, P113.

Your claim that Mr. Brooks made the motion to give the $$ to the Housing Authority, then bought those two lots with intent to sell is 100% straight up BS. The lot that Mr. Brooks bought in January is located on Fleming St, not on Gladden St. I'd love to see proof otherwise.

Also, LOL, your whole premise is that the City just gave $580,000 to the Housing Authority. It was $528,000, and it was a loan. I realize there were other items/services given to the Housing Authority as well, but helping the Housing Authority out with discounted or free water, sewer, or electrical services has been going on for years.

Proof that Mr. Brooks sold properties for a profit to the Housing Authority. Proof that the City gave the Housing Authority $580,000, and that they took expensive vacations with the money, after splitting the proceeds with Mr. Brooks. You can't just make crazy stuff up, and spout it all over Facebook and this site.

I'd love to see some evidence to back these claims up. Council minutes, deeds, etc. Otherwise it just sounds like you're trying to trash Mayor Sadler to prop up Bobby Roberson.
