Why Callaway Deserves Better than Commissioner David Griggs
In the realm of local politics, few figures have managed to elicit the level of frustration and disenchantment that Callaway City Commissioner David Griggs has in recent years. For a man elected to serve at the pleasure of the citizens, Griggs has astonishingly little interest in actually listening to those he represents. He seems to have forgotten—or perhaps never understood—that his role is not that of an overlord, but of a public servant. Callaway deserves better. It’s time to call out Griggs for what he is: an obstructionist with a self-inflated sense of authority who has overstayed his welcome.
