One "hot-button" topic among Mayoral candidates at Mt. Zion's municioal candidate forum Tuesday revolved around the city's police force. Candidate eric Robinson says the local office's budget needs to be cut significantly.
In addition, candidate Randy Sims, who is also a Sergeant with Mt. Zion Police, says he would like to see the city keep revenues from in-city DUI's and other offenses in Mt. Zion by creating the proper city ordinances. He says, as the ordinances stand, many local citations end up in state court... so does the revenue.
