Canal Fulton Council Upset by Casino Survey

As reported by the Canton Repository: "Canal Fulton City Council members were both bewildered and dismayed about a telephone survey being conducted by Discovery Research Group about casinos.

"Council members were bewildered because none knew anything about the survey. City Manager Mark Cozy said the Eastern Shawnee Tribe of Oklahoma contacted him July 26 about the survey and he informed Mayor John Grogan.

"Cozy said he told the tribe representative that he was concerned that residents did not have all the information about the casino. Grogan said the tribe was paying for the survey.

"Council and other city officials were dismayed by the information the survey takers were telling residents and the questions they were asking"
