West Park is a small Broward city at odds with itself.

For months, a majority of the five-member, nonpartisan city commission have wanted to oust both the city attorney and city manager for alleged corruption they say includes usurping their legal authority.

Reform-minded Commissioner Katrina Touchstone, a pharmacist by trade, is using what she says is her own money, to sue the city, the mayor, the city clerk and city manager claiming its citizens are being deprived of “their democratically elected government” because the city is being run “like a dictatorship.” The lawsuit asks a Broward judge to put a stop to it.
