Lakeland commission discusses $130,000 PR bill
Lakeland, FL -- As promised, Lakeland's Mayor Howard Wiggs raised the topic: close to $130,000 the city has spent on a public relations firm.
The growing price tag is for advice and strategy to handle the city's police department sex scandal.
"I would have thought maybe $5,000 to $10,000 would have been a reasonable request," said Wiggs.
"I think we should be done with their services. We have a bunch of smart, highly paid people here that can take care of that," said Commissioner Justin Troller.
