Auburn Mayor Dr. Bill Kirby announced he is resigning and will step down at the next Council meeting on April 27.
There was backlash from the local community Kirby after he shared a meme last week on a Facebook page called "William Kirby, Mayor of Auburn Fan Club." It showed a hooded KKK member under the text, "Good news for Trump supporters is that most of them already have masks." Kirby added a one-word comment: 'True'."
He compared President Trump to Adolf Hitler in a comment and suggested "the world would be a much better place" without him." Kirby said he was frustrated with President Trump over concerns regarding the coronavirus pandemic.
