In this Newsmakers interview with Judy Stiles, Joplin Mayor Mike Seibert reflects on his four years as mayor, his nearly a decade on the City Council and the Joplin Tornado recovery process.
During an early segment of the interview, Seibert addresses the "obstacles" the city encountered during the tornado recovery and though the city's master planner Wallace Bajjali a firm that Seibert helped bring to Joplin is not mentioned, he brushes it off by indicating that any critics are only doing so with the benefit of hindsight.
The same attitude extends to the state audit, which gave the city a "poor" rating.
"There wasn't a set of binders we could open up and say this is the way to recover."
Seibert noted that despite the "obstacles" the city has continued to move forward.
Seibert explained his decision not to run for re-election.
"It was the right time for me to step down."

Always remember Wallace Bajjali. Same for CJ Huff.

Seibert wishes you would forget about Bajalli, like Hillary wishes you would forget about Beghazi.
Seibert has made enough money off the city with all of his crooked dealings, now he is ready to move on.
City corruption at its finest .
Take the money and run. Kinda makes you wonder about the Woolston Library too doesn't it?
When is the first Blasters baseball game?
