The email below is what all candidates received this morning as a reminder and what to expect tonight. Candidate Stephen Doherty withdrew, his email is included:
Dear Mr. Dancer, Mr. Allen, Mrs. Allen, Mr. Olson, Ms. Rawlins and Mrs. Guns,
Just a friendly reminder that the City Commission will vote on and select a new Commissioner for the vacant spot for which you applied. The meeting begins promptly at 6:00PM at City Hall in the Commissioners’ Room. It will be LIVE and recorded on YouTube.
As in the past, each candidate will be called to the podium to introduce themselves and the Commissioners will most likely ask questions of you. Please feel free to ask them questions as well.
The Appointment of the Office is the priority on the Agenda and the first order of business. No other business will be conducted until the new Commissioner is selected. Once selected, you will be sworn in with an Oath of Office (by the City Clerk), then take your place at the table as a newly appointed City Commissioner and continue with the rest of the Agenda.
As you may or may not know, this could be a lengthy meeting. Please be prepared to stay for the entire meeting as you will be voting on Agenda items tonight.
It is an exciting evening, and I wish you all the best of luck and look forward to working with our next City Commissioner! All other pertinent information will be given after the meeting.
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me. I will also be available prior to the meeting for any last-minute concerns.
Sincerely,
Lisa Lewis
City Clerk
