(Atlantic) Tuesday, December 28, at 5:00 p.m., is the deadline to apply for the open seat on the Atlantic City Council. Last week the Council voted across the board to appoint someone. The person appointed to the position serves until the next city election.
Grace Garrett takes over as Mayor on January 1, 2022, says any Atlantic resident interested in the seat can submit a resume’ of interest to City Hall by Tuesday, at 5:00 p.m.
Additionally, the public has the right to petition for a special election within fourteen days after the appointment. The notice is published, whichever is later, and contains enough signatures of eligible city electors.
