Eureka Springs Parks and Recreation Director Justin Huss was recently terminated by Parks Commission Chair Ruth Goodwin-Hager for absenteeism. But Huss, hired four years ago, has also faced criticism from concerned locals about a lack of financial accountability, master planning and public transparency in managing the town's popular and historic parks and trails system.
