Impact analysis
It's unclear if this behind-the-scenes drama is costing taxpayers any money, but it's definitely not a good look for City Hall.
Honestly, it's hard to say who benefits here, but it's probably not the residents who want a smooth-running city government.
The city's reputation and public trust are likely taking a hit from this ongoing political drama.
