The [Avon Park, Florida] City Council has fired City Attorney Mike Disler after he publicly criticized Avon Park's controversial illegal immigration ordinance as "poorly drafted" and unconstitutional.

The Ledger reported Disler's remarks in a Thursday front-page story regarding how the ordinance might affect Wal-Mart's plans to build a supercenter in the city later this year. It was the first time Disler had spoken out on the ordinance.

When asked Monday if he regretted those remarks, Disler said, "No, I don't."
