KEEP SANCTIONS ON SKILLICORN


KEEP SANCTIONS ON SKILLICORN
The Issue
Councilman Allen Skillicorn proudly refers to himself as a "Chaos Agent" and rightly so. He has done nothing but sow chaos since winning a seat on the Council.
Last February, Skillicorn was found in violation of Fountain Hills Town Council Code of Ethics by a third-party investigating law firm. Investigators state in the reports that Skillicorn’s actions on two separate occasions violated multiple sections of the council’s ethics guidelines.
The first incident is detailed in a report filed with the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Department. The report recounts how Skillicorn had aggressively followed code enforcement officer, Pete Lucchese, in an attempt to retrieve his political sign. Lucchese had picked up the sign for violating City Council-approved codes. Using a tracking device attached to the sign Skillicorn followed Lucchese, while flashing his high beam lights, to the nearest police station.
Investigators found that Skillicorn’s handling of the situation with Lucchese was in violation of four sections of the council’s Code of Ethics; sections 8.2, 8.3, 8.4(A), and 8.6(B). The report states that Skillicorn’s actions do not set “a positive example of good citizenship by scrupulously observing the letter and spirit of laws, rules and regulations,” contrary to section 8.2 of the Code of Ethics.
Additionally, investigators cited Skillicorn for violating sections 8.4(A), and 8.6(B) in a second report relating to his comments and questions during a January regular council meeting.
In March of 2024, Fountain Hills Town Council sanctioned Councilmember Allen Skillicorn, barring him from the council’s vice mayor position, removing tax-dollar funding for him to participate in meetings and events, and mandating he have a monitor any time he interacts with a town employee in person.
Skillicorn's response was to sue the Town (more wasted tax money), but he didn't get the result he wanted.
JUDGE ISSUES FINAL ORDER FINDING THAT SKILLICORN’S LAWSUIT AGAINST THE TOWN LACKS MERIT: REQUEST FOR AN INJUNCTION IS DENIED
The judge assigned to the action Allen Skillicorn v. Ginny Dickey et al.—issued a tentative ruling, finding that under established Supreme Court precedent, the Town Council had the right to censure and discipline Skillicorn.
THE FOLLOWING RESIDENTS OF FOUNTAIN HILLS ARIZONA WANT THE SANCTIONS IMPOSED ON COUNCILMAN ALLEN SKILLICORN TO REMAIN IN FORCE.
