Four citizens are being considered for appointment Oct. 11 to Granite Shoals City Council Place 3.
Eric Tanner took an early end to his term limit in order to work toward voter acceptance of the street bond election Nov. 8. The Oct. 11 meeting of the council will be the charter-mandated deadline for a requisite five-vote appointment for the replacement to serve his unexpired term.
Citizens had until Sept. 30 to apply with City Secretary Elaine Simpson, so each applicant could be validated in time for interviews in open session of the council and a vote on the appointment. In order of their application submissions, the candidates are James D. “Jim” Davant, Will Skinner, Arturo Rubio and Terry G. Scott.
