MEDIA RELEASE
 
 
I have been advised by legal counsel that the recent allegations against me made by Councilman Callaway concerning contributions do not constitute any violations of New Jersey law. I have faith in our legal system and any fair minded, nonpartisan inquiry will exonerate me completely of any improper behavior. There are those out there who have charged me with shaking down city employees for a political contribution. As a citizen, and public employee, I would condemn such a practice at any level, (federal, state or local). I have never, nor would I ever, engage in such activity.
 
Despite these politically motivated distractions directed at me, I will continue to devote my energy, faith and spirit to the goal of the Langford Administration --- to make Atlantic City a better place to live, work, visit, and raise a family.
 
 
CHERYL D. BANKS
Chief of Staff/Confidential Secretary
