SUMMARY: The unexpected resignation of city official Joe Dylan in Columbus, Northeast Mississippi’s largest city, has been confirmed. Dylan, who served as the public information officer handling media relations for the city, announced his resignation at a city council meeting. His departure was attributed to the lack of payment for work done in 2019, which the city cannot legally compensate for due to the absence of a contract. Dylan stated that it was time to move on after nearly 10 years in the position, and the city council confirmed that he will remain in his role for the next few weeks.
