Meza Appointed to Town Council

Published

on

The Town Council has selected Jacob Meza to fill the unexpired term of Mayor Chris Holloway. The Town Council accepted applications for the unexpired term and conducted interviews of all applicants and are very appreciative for those who were willing to serve our community.

Mr. Meza’s experience on the Town Council and Planning Commission set him apart from the other candidates. The loss of the institutional knowledge of former Mayor Tewalt and former Vice-Mayor Sealock also influenced the Council’s decision. Mr. Meza has a vast knowledge of the EDA lawsuit, infrastructure projects, COVID-19 and the Town’s budget. Council believed that it is in the best interest of our citizens to bring back Mr. Meza for this year for much needed continuity of government.

Mayor Holloway stated, “I support Council’s decision and had I been allowed to vote, I too would have voted for Mr. Meza for all the aforementioned reasons.”

Town Council stated that a special election will take place in November 2021.
