During Tuesday night’s City Council meeting, Ward 3 Alderman Bobby Ferrell announced the selections for several open board and committee positions, as recommended by the City Council Nominating Committee.

The announcement also included Mayor Jordan’s nomination for an open seat on the Historic District Commission.

Council members approved the nominations unanimously and later encouraged citizens to continue applying for the open positions.

“We had a large number of qualified applicants,” said Ward 2 Alderman Mark Kinion. “The quality of the applications was incredibly impressive, so if someone did apply and didn’t get on a committee, we certainly want to encourage them to apply again.”
