Bangs City Administrator Erica Berry confirmed to BrownwoodNews.com Tuesday afternoon that during the Monday, July 13 city council meeting, Council Member Melissa Drury, Mayor Steve Whittenberg, City Attorney Bovey and Cochran, and all but six members of the Bangs Volunteer Fire Department resigned effective immediately.

BrownwoodNews.com reached out to Drury, who stated the following regarding her decision to resign.

"Ultimately I guess some people are made to be on city council and some people are not, and I clearly have far too much emotion involved, or too much passion for the City to be at that level," Drury said.
