Watchdog Mike Matthews broke the story of an MLGW exec, Armstead Ward, who says he lives in one place while he really in another. Mike found the home Ward listed as his address to get a job at MLGW (Execs are required to live within city limits) is worth $28,000, doesn’t appear to have utilities and neighbors say no one ever enters the home. Mike then found Ward really lives in a $650,000 home in Eads. MLGW president Jerry Collins admitted the rules aren’t tough enough and plans to address the matter Thursday.
What do you think? Should city employees be told where they can and cannot live?
