Up or down? Thornton Township meeting cancelled again after location dispute, safety concerns
1 min read
A standoff brewed Tuesday night before community members were even allowed into the Thornton Township board meeting.
"I just don’t see why it has to be a struggle," said Chris Gonzalez, one of Thornton Township’s trustees.
Gonzalez insisted on holding the meeting in a downstairs room that he said has more exits and can accommodate more people. Safety was his top worry amid escalating tensions that have developed at the township’s board meetings.
