They say where there’s smoke there’s fire, which is why more than a dozen firefighters in south suburban Dolton are going public with their concerns about the controversies smoldering at village hall.On Monday, those firefighters confronted Dolton Mayor Tiffany Henyard at a village board meeting, demanding to know where their money is."I’m here today with fellow members… looking for answers," said Adam Farej, Dolton Firefighter’s Union President.
"All this comes at a time when Mayor Henyard is at the center of a federal corruption investigation looking into her spending on expensive trips, a private police security detail and questionable contracts."This has been brought up to the village numerous times. All request to date have been ignored," said Farej.Dolton Trustee Kiana Belcher says she believes money earmarked for the fire department and the firefighter’s insurance and retirement is being misspent by the mayor.
