Residents call for resignation of Brockport Mayor following arrest
Some people in the village of Brockport are calling for the mayor to resign.
A village board meeting was held at the A.D. Oliver Middle School Auditorium Tuesday night. The last meeting was canceled because the crowd was too big for the village board room.
Mayor Connie Castañeda is charged with 14 counts of official misconduct for renting rooms in her house illegally to college students. She claims the charges are the result of budge differences with the police chief.
Some village residents called for her resignation Tuesday night.
"I know she is claiming innocence, and that she is claiming that this is political payback. But without regard to whether or not she is guilty, she can no longer effectively govern," said Brockport resident John Cohen.
Linda Ketchum agrees with Cohen. "The mayor is not fulfilling her responsibilities to the residents of Brockport. Mayor, you should step down."
