Bunn told WSB that Timmons had had asked him for the tracker back in front of multiple people. Timmons would not comment when asked about the accussation at Monday's meeting, and Bunn said he didn't object to the tracking if it was done properly.
"If I cannot do my job, if I'm not given an opportunity to do my job with character, I can't do it," said Bunn.
Along with the tracking allegation, other officers expressed support for Bunn and leadership concerns with the mayor and certain council members, according to resignation letters obtained by WSB. Bunn said he was not the first department member to resign, and he didn't ask other officers to step down.
Even with the allegations against the mayor, Bunn said he still had hope that he and the town could work things out before his last day.
"If (the trust) can be fixed, we need to fix it," he said.
If there's no resolution between the town and the resigning chief and police officers, the Lamar County Sheriff's Office is expected to provide law enforcement coverage for Milner.
