The Martin Chronicles' entire staff enjoyed Sunday's soggy fireworks show on the river. But we don't think the fireworks are over. Why? Sources are telling us that more fireworks may be on the way in that embattled and embarrassed town along river, Mayor Martin's Villa Hills.
It's bad enough that Martin is holding a meeting designed to raise every home owner's property taxes. It's even worse that Martin's (mis)conduct has been so outrageous over the last two years that council may decide to move forward, preferring charges and scheduling a removal hearing.
Nothing is for certain. Circumstances could cause a change in direction. Martin may have some other stunt up his sleeve. We won't know what will happen until it actually happens.
There will certainly be that core of Martin support who continues to blame City Council for the turmoil. There is no point wasting any more time trying to figure out that way of thinking. It is what it is. It exist for a variety of reasons.
If the council does indeed decide to move ahead on Wednesday, it will ultimately be a good thing. Even for those who think Martin is nothing more than a victim. The public will be shown the facts. Martin will have his "day in court". Then perhaps everyone can move on.
But somehow we doubt that.
