Elections

On Jan 15, 2022, voters will elect a replacement representative for City Council, At-Large 2

This position became vacant on Oct 15, when Council Member Frederick Frazier announced his candidacy to run for a state House Representative seat.
Because his term on City Council has more than 1 year remaining, state law requires his replacement to be elected rather than appointed. He will continue to serve until a replacement member is determined.
Due to the nature of the vacancy and required deadlines, this event cannot be delayed until the uniform election event of May 2022.
