ROOSEVELT, Utah (AP) — The city manager of Roosevelt is under fire after a pair of stop signs was removed from an intersection where he was cited.
Residents are up in arms that two stop signs were taken down last month, a few days after City Manager Ryan Snow received a ticket in mid-March for failing to stop.
The city attorney also ordered Snow's March 17 citation to be dismissed.
In a letter sent to residents Wednesday, the mayor and city council stated that Snow had only asked public works officials to review the intersection.
The city says nobody ever ordered the signs' removal.
In a post on the city's Facebook page, Snow says the Utah Highway Patrol officer was right to ticket him and he never asked the city attorney for special treatment.
