Prior to his re-election to the District 2 seat on the Statesboro City Council in 2011, we wrote in this space that Gary Lewis continuing as a council member would be a blight on District 2 and the city of Statesboro.Lewis remains on the council and he is, indeed, a blight, damaging the credibility of the city he represents and disrespecting the citizens who elected him. Since he took office for his fourth full term in January 2012, Lewis has done what he usually does on council — little to nothing. He rarely speaks in meetings and offers nothing useful to any discussion of issues when he does speak.
