Last Meeting for Onuffer, Tingley

Bob Onuffer and Bob Tingley attended their last Bradford City Council meeting as councilmen Tuesday.

Mayor Tom Riel, councilmen Rick Benton and Ross Neidich, City Clerk John Peterson and resident Brad Mangel all thanked them for their service to the city.

Peterson said both men have done an exemplary job.

He added that preceding his tenure on council, Onuffer was always concerned about the city's budget.

"For all the years we had to have major tax increases and everything else, it was kind of like water off a duck's back (to other people)," Peterson said.

"(Onuffer) is the only person in the city of Bradford that ever came in to city hall to look at a budget," Peterson said. "I think that speaks volumes of Bob as a person and his commitment to the city."

Neidich said to Onuffer, "You always had the best interests of the city at heart."

Riel said Onuffer is "one of the most active members of council the city has seen in many years. I'm sure everybody in the city of Bradford appreciates that and wishes you well."
