The 26+ year Mayor of Brigantine explained that since an independent arbiter was not used to decide this issue, then everything, in Guenther&#8217;s view, was fine.<\/p>\n<p>In what may be described as political correctness at it&#8217;s finest, Councilman Simpson believes use of the term <em>improper billing<\/em> was &#8216;disgraceful&#8217; (see video).\u00a0Guenther believes accusation of improper billing is unfair because individual (Doran) was not in attendance, and could not defend himself and provide rebuttal.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3>READ MORE about Doran Engineering in Brigantine<\/h3>\n<h5><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shorenewstoday.com\/brigantine\/news\/doran-engineering-still-subject-of-council-debate\/article_b63db342-9e3b-533c-ba3b-b36edd680c6a.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Doran Engineering still subject of council debate <\/a>\u00a0 Brigantine Beachcomber.
