At the Front Royal Town Council Work Session of June 3, Councilman Eugene Tewalt raised the issue of code and permitting exceptions council granted to the EDA at the request of former Executive Director Jennifer McDonald in November 2016. Tewalt said he would like those permitting exceptions rescinded because the Town was lied to about who the actual developer of the property would be and more.

Councilman Tewalt discusses these issues in an interview with Royal Examiner publisher Mike McCool:
