Leeds City Board Controversy | Huntsville News

Leeds, Alabama, is in the middle of a fiery debate over how city boards are filled — with Mayor Eddie Moore pushing to scrap mandatory applications for appointments, claiming it’s just streamlining a common practice. But critics like resident Victoria McDonald and Councilwoman Sabrina Rose argue it’s exclusionary and lacks transparency, citing concerns about nepotism — including Kennedy’s son on a board and questions about the mayor’s family. Things escalated when Kennedy called McDonald “a nasty girl,” sparking a public showdown. The council will vote again on September 14th — and the stakes couldn’t be higher for fairness and representation.
