Lyn Cornelius - Acting Mayor

City Governance Update

​With Mayor Dougherty's resignation, the Common Council had three options for the remainder of his term (1 year): name a mayor, hold a special election, or not fill the position. At a special meeting on April 16 they opted to leave the position unfilled, a decision that will be revisited at the regular June council meeting. Lyn Cornelius was elected Council President at the last meeting in which Mayor Dougherty participated and remains in this position. This position is recognized as the Acting Mayor in the absence of the Mayor.
