It was standing room only Monday night as Slatington Borough residents and fire department supporters spilled into the borough council’s meeting room’s hallway. Over three quarters of the Slatington Volunteer Fire Department showed up to the council meeting to request former chief Keith Weaver be reinstatedafter being removed last month. During October’s meeting, the board voted 6-1 to oust Weaver from the appointed position that he held for 13 years on the grounds of insubordination for taking the borough’s ladder truck outside the municipality for a funeral. Weaver had been denied permission from the borough’s public safety committee chairman, Jon Rinker.Councilman Bryon Reed was the only member to vote against the motion.
