This is an absolute disgrace to Union County taxpayers. Bibi Taylor (Stewart/Gavin/whoever else *** *******/***** ****) and Edward Oatman must be held fully accountable and prosecuted for this absolute abuse and mismanagement of taxpayer money. They should resign immediately but neither lack the integrity or ethics clearly to do so. Disgusting duo and a mockery of the hardworking taxpayers of Union County (neither of whom live here….)
