Problem:SAN MARINO (CBSLA.com) — The mayor of San Marino is in the doghouse after surveillance video caught him throwing dog feces onto his neighbor’s yard. 
  
 Some residents are even calling for his resignation. 
  
 “What in the world were you thinking?” a San Marino resident said at a crowded meeting Wednesday night at City Hall. “What procedures do we go through to have him resign?” 
  
 Mayor Dennis Kneier’s neighbor Phillip Lao says the two have been embroiled in an ongoing feud since 2008 because he disagrees with some of the lawmaker’s proposals. 
  
 Lao says he’s filing harassment charges against the mayor and the city. 
  
 “If I were in his place I would resign, in shame,” Lao said. 
  
 The mayor apologized at the start of Wednesday’s meeting. 
  
 “I have absolutely regretted that action. I have apologized to the property owner to which the bag ended up,” Kneier said. 
  
 But a few residents spoke out, saying an apology wasn’t enough — they want Kneier to step down from his post. 
  
 Some people at the meeting spoke in the mayor’s defense, saying he and his wife have worked hard for the residents in San Marino. 
  
 “There are few people in this community who have dedicated as much time as Liz and Dennis,” one resident said. 
  
 The mayor did not comment whether he would consider resigning despite multiple inquiries. ||||| × Dog Poop Controversy Prompts San Marino Mayor to Resign Role 
  
 The mayor of affluent San Marino has resigned his largely ceremonial role as head of the City Council in the wake of a scandal over his having tossed dog poop onto a neighbor’s property. 
  
 Dennis Kneier announced Tuesday that he would step down as mayor immediately, but would remain on the City Council until his term ends in November 2015, the city stated in a news release. 
  
 Kneier was caught on surveillance video tossing a bag of dog excrement onto a neighbor’s property during a June 7 walk home from Lacy Park with his wife. 
  
 He apologized to the neighbor, Philip Lao, who said he was talking to an attorney about the matter. Police investigated. 
  
 The surveillance video was released by Lao to news media and it was widely viewed. 
  
 In a letter to his fellow City Council members announcing his resignation, Kneier noted the incident was “well known.” 
  
 “I had a lapse of judgment and discarded dog waste on a neighbor’s walkway. It was insensitive, disrespectful and wrong,” Kneier wrote. 
  
 He said the events continue to embarrass him and the city. 
  
 Vice-Mayor Eugene Sun will take over mayoral duties, Kneier said. The council will choose a new mayor at its June 27 council meeting. 
  
 About 100 people attended the city’s June 11 council meeting to discuss the controversy, according to the city’s news release. 
  
 “This has been a challenging few days for our city and we’re hopeful that with Mr. Kneier’s decision, and with his public and private expressions of regret for the incident, we can move forward,’’ Sun said in the release.

Solution:
A California mayor has really stepped in it. Dennis Kneier, mayor of San Marino, tossed a bag of dog poop into his neighbor's driveway—and, unfortunately for him, the moment was caught on video. He's resigning immediately over the incident, CBS 2 reports. "As is well known, early in the evening of Saturday, June 7, I had a lapse of judgment and discarded dog waste on a neighbor’s walkway," Kneier wrote in his resignation letter. "It was insensitive, disrespectful and wrong. I have apologized to my neighbor for my action, and I will pay a fine for littering." According to the neighbor, Phillip Lao, the two men haven't seen eye to eye on Kneier's policy moves, leading to running disagreements. Lao earlier suggested Kneier should "resign in shame" over the incident and said he'd file harassment charges against Kneier and San Marino. During a City Hall meeting last week, others agreed that Kneier should resign from his post, which, KTLA notes, is mostly ceremonial. "What in the world were you thinking?" asked one. Vice mayor Eugene Sun will take over as temporary mayor, and Kneier will continue as a city councilman.
