Bexley City Council Member Facing Discipline For Rude Behavior

bexley.org

Bexley City Council member Tim Madison is facing disciplinary action after he engaged in what the council president says was unacceptable and menacing behavior toward a resident. 

Results of an internal investigation show during a break on November 13,  Madison confronted Nate Caplin in the City Hall parking lot and called him a “gutless troll” three times. Caplin spoke against Madison's bill banning short-term rentals. Madison said comments Caplin made on social media about being secretive during the legislative process lacked evidence. The investigation also shows Madison called another person an S.O.B. Madison has since apologized. It's not clear if or when council will take any action.
