City receives reports of illegal alien workers
June 21, 2008

Businesses are violating a new city law against employing illegal aliens, according to complaints from several residents. City officials expect more complaints to pile up before they can start investigation and enforcement.

The finance department is reorganizing to check out each claim, said director Lloyd Faulkner. There is no timetable for having the process in place, but Faulkner said when it is, things will be done right.

It’s been a month since the City Council passed the ordinance that would yank the business licenses of anyone who knowingly employs undocumented workers.
