While a number of candidates are in the running for various mayoral and city council seats in Henry County’s other three cities, things are much simpler in Locust Grove leading up to the Nov. 2 election. The city clerk’s office has reported that for the three council seats up for grabs this fall, only three people qualified to run this fall: Keith Boone, Willie Taylor and Vincent Williams.
Interestingly, they are the three incumbents for those positions, which means there will be no changes on the council and no first-time council members when the new term begins in January. Taylor began serving in May of 2015 after his predecessor passed away suddenly, and Williams won a special election earlier this year after his predecessor moved outside the city limits. Boone has served multiple terms on the council over the past three decades. All council seats are at-large. Information: locustgrove-ga.gov.
