A Statesboro City Councilman, whose use of a city-provided Internet card amassed more than $2,000 of additional fees for Statesboro’s monthly bill, is expected to reimburse the city by the end of the week. Councilman Will Britt, who accrued approximately $2,600 in charges on a Verizon Mifi Wireless Internet Card during a 14-day vacation to China, submitted a $1,000 payment to Statesboro and should complete repayment later this week, according to City Manager Frank Parker. Britt provided the city a check Friday and will forfeit the remaining sum when Parker determines a final amount owed — the city manager is currently attempting to have some charges from the tab removed.
