She has spent the last 3 months promoting Zach Bonahoom at just about every council meeting. She&#8217;s repeatedly[1] attempted[2] to give the recent high school graduate a role in council meetings in an attempt to defeat long time City Clerk Sandy Kennedy.<\/p>\n<p>The Clerk is coming before Council tonight to discuss her 2012 budget. Given Brown&#8217;s repeated support for Bonahoom one has to wonder if Brown will use the opportunity to score cheap political points.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;GOP Chairman Steve Shine was right when he said &#8216;Sandy is well known and well respected and does a fine job.'[3] Hopefully Liz Brown will show Kennedy the same respect tonight.&#8221; said Allen County Democratic Party Spokesman Kevin Knuth. &#8220;But if Brown goes after the Clerk, at least we&#8217;ll all know why she&#8217;s doing it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Citations<\/strong>:<br \/>\n[1] Kelly\/Lanka, Journal Gazette, 8\/7\/2011<br \/>\n[2] Kelly\/Lanka, Journal Gazette, 8\/21\/2011<br \/>\n[3] Lanka, Journal Gazette, 6\/25\/2008<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Related Images:<\/h3><div class=\"ngg-related-gallery\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/cityoffw\/88101.jpg\"\n\t\t\ttitle=\"First Public Safety Task Force meeting on May 13, 2009.\"\n\t\t\tclass='thickbox' rel='d246514087c8a39f1c5246c97215109c' data-image-id=\"2309\" data-src=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/cityoffw\/88101.jpg\" data-thumbnail=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/cityoffw\/thumbs\/thumbs_88101.jpg\" data-title=\"Public Safety Task Force\" data-description=\"First Public Safety Task Force meeting on May 13, 2009.\">\n\t\t\t<img title=\"Public Safety Task Force\"\n\t\t\t\talt=\"Public Safety Task Force\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-image-id=\"2309\"\n\t\t\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/cityoffw\/thumbs\/thumbs_88101.jpg\"\/>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/blog-headers\/2009_07_14_header.jpg\"\n\t\t\ttitle=\"City and County officials at a meeting concerning the County&#039;s Renaissance Square proposal.
