Letter: Riley, others helpful in storm

I am a resident of Hilton Head Plantation but, luckily, was in Wisconsin during Hurricane Matthew.

Thanks to the input I received from town manager Steve Riley (I have not met him), the Hilton Head Plantation manager, the Beaufort County Sheriff’s Office staff and Facebook posts, I was fully informed. During that time period I don’t recall hearing a single word from our mayor. Maybe he should go, not Riley.
