Greenfield Residents Learn that City Council Members Carry Guns to Meetings

Greenfield residents learned this week, following months of rumor, that city council members carry guns to meetings. The revelation came about following a confession by Council Member Howard Velhuizen that he was carrying two handguns in a meeting in December.

Some council members explained that they brought their guns out of concern for their safety around council opponents.
