Fairview MO Mayor Stays On...For Now

The Fairview city council has delayed plans to hold a closed session meeting to discuss the status of their mayor, Sid Oliver.  Oliver was arrested early Thurday and charged with two felony counts of theft.  He is out on a $50,000 cash bond.  He is accused of charging the city for over $19,000 worth of services over the past two years.  As an elected official, state law outlines and limits the amount of business he can do with the city.

The city council will wait until their regularly scheduled meeting on December 14th to consider any actions against the mayor.

Fairview had a reported population in 2000 of 395 according to the US Census Bureau.
