The Council voted to interview the following candidates:

  • Hira Singh Bhullar
  • Suzanne Cameron
  • Lee Ann Dickson
  • Sara Denise Henrietta Franklin
  • Marli Larimer
  • Zandria Michaud
  • Mizanur Rahman
  • William Shorr

The candidates will be interviewed and appointed at a later date.

Once selected, Mayor Dana Ralph will swear in the new Councilmember.
