Bad behavior on the agenda: "In Warren, it has not been unusual for council members to clip their nails, eat potato chips, read the newspaper or tap their pencils loudly when a colleague they didn't support was speaking.
At one point during the last year, a third of the council was under federal indictment, which led to frequent name-calling and backstabbing.
In January, Councilman Michael Wiecek called Warren Mayor Mark Steenbergh a drunk and offered to help pay for alcohol abuse counseling.
This week, Wiecek proposed a motion to jail the mayor for ignoring a council edict to keep the city pool and a recreation center open. The measure failed. "
