Pictures from Sky View 21 show the progress of the cleanup inside the Broad Street Market brick building after an emergency declaration was signed in July to address a rat infestation.
The CBS 21 Investigates team received new information from the mayor's office this week. It showed the city has executed six contracts since Mayor Wanda Williams issued a disaster declaration over the brick building on July 23. The declaration was made due to a rat infestation city officials said could've caused a public health emergency.
"The mayor mentioned her office is an open door, but it's more like a revolving door. In the mayor's office alone the business administrator role has been vacant since June 7, 2024. The communications director role will be vacant as of next week. There is no finance director, no director community relations and engagement, nor is there a sustainability coordinator. These roles were all vacated over the past month.
"We feel as though that our jobs are being circumvented," said Jones. "We have a right to view the contracts that come through and make a decision to make sure that we are doing what we were elected to do." The mayor's office said the declaration was needed to cut through red tape and quickly address the rat infestation.
