Springfield Aldermen Question Email Change

springfield.il.us

Springfield aldermen raised questions last night regarding their city email accounts.  Alderman Cory Jobe says an email from a constituent was forwarded to him from the City Communications Director's account.   Nathan Mihelich holds that position. He says it's due to how the email program is set up.

“The way the computer works, it may list me as the administrator for the program.  And that's why you're seeing it like that.  But I'm not cc'd on any of those emails,” Mihelich said.

Still, the council members brought up concerns the mayor's administration could be reading those emails.  The aldermen requested the messages instead go through the council coordinator.
