The Locust Grove City Council voted unanimously at its Jan. 19 regular meeting to begin the process of replacing one of its own. A special election was called for March 16 to fill the seat left vacant by John R. Gardner, who moved out of the city effective Nov. 1 of last year.
According to the resolution passed by the council, Gardner notified the city in mid-October of the move. The resolution praised Gardner for his two-plus years of service and also set the qualifying dates for the special election. Qualifying will be Feb. 15-17 at City Hall.
