The city clerk accidentally published the information. Social security numbers, phone numbers, addresses and personal information from union application cards found its way onto the city's Web site for over 36 hours. The city clerk was updating the agenda for this week's city council meeting where the city will vote on recognizing the new union. "The city clerk in this case, she does hundreds of thousands of pieces of document. This one slipped by. It's nothing intentional. We apologize," said Minneola Mayor David Yeager. Minneola is giving all nine firefighters a one-year subscription to a credit monitoring service. The union president said he realizes this was an honest mistake. The city manager is investigating the incident. There is no word on whether or not the city clerk will be disciplined Michael Hill Certified Identity Theft Risk Management Specialist IDT Consultants 404-216-3751 "If You Think You're Not At Risk, Think Again!"
