Fellow Galionites:

I am sharing this short statement concerning Tuesday night’s Council meeting as well as the story which appeared Thursday on a local media site.

The information shared that evening with Council on Tuesday is part of a much larger story and simply cannot be understood without context. Coming to any conclusion would be akin to reading only a couple chapters of any book and believing one to be an expert on its contents.

I would invite any Galion resident to ask me personally for relevant facts or to call my Assistant at (419) 468-9557 and make an appointment to do so.

I am fiercely proud of what will soon be my nine-and-a-half-year tenure as Director of Law. I stand behind that record.

Thanks,

Thomas Palmer

Director of Law
