City of Hollywood Mayor Josh Levy Fires Commissioner

The city commissioners voted 5-2 to remove three street signs named after Civil War generals. Bo Dixie, the Hollywood Commissioner, has connections to the organization and attempts to thwart the operation.

Dixie is shot by a committee appointed by Mayor Josh Levy to investigate the election fiasco. He owns a stake in the firm. The firm has won an offer to ban the signage in the area, but he does not vote, despite the fact that he does.

Dixie, on the other hand, is not sorry. He blames the sensitivity of the people. “People are so damn emotional these days,” he thinks. He is, however, not pleased that the streets are going to change names. He says, ”It is just a travesty that we are losing all these nods to history.”

Dixie expresses duplicitous character in his power exercise. He presents outrageous deeds in voting for the change of street’s names as a leader. Maria Diaz affirms these allegations when she says that, ””Yet again, the ones in power are duplicitous,” referring to Dixie’s deals.

He views the actions that have transpired the votes with contempt and disregards everything that was considered relevant by other citizens. He abuses his power as a Commissioner, an act that the people are not aware of, as one of the Hollywood resident comments that, ”Changing the street names was the right thing to do., Sand asks, ”… what if Dixie has connections to the sign company?” He is, however, not pleased that the streets are going to change names. He says, ”It is just a travesty that we are losing all these nods to history.”
