Demonstrating the intention of a group of Holly Springs residents to seek the removal of several fire commissioners at next month’s meeting of the county legislative delegation, this sign along Hwy 357 showed up after last week’s contentious commission meeting at which the commissioners were grilled by angry residents.
The apparent impasse between embattled Holly Springs Fire Chief Lee Jeffcoat and most of the fire district’s commissioners continued this week following a contentious meeting last week when the commission was lambasted by numerous community members.
Jeffcoat said Monday that commission Chairman Ryan Phillips returned to the fire station late the day after the Tuesday meeting and requested copies of commission meeting minutes going back to the 1970s.
Jeffcoat said that prior to 2008, all of the commission’s minutes were handwritten by commissioner Clara Edwards and have been archived. He said he explained to Phillips that it would take some time and effort to collect all the minutes for such a span of time and make copies. He said Phillips offered no explanation as to why the minutes were needed.
