City Attorney Marshall Loy: High praise as tenure nears close 2017-12-05 - City Hall, 116 Campbellsville Street, Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com. The highpoint of last night's Columbia City Council Meeting was the realization that City Attorney Marshall Loy, City Attorney through the administrations of several mayoral administrations, will be stepping down at the end of 2017. He was universally praised by Mayor Hardwick and all members of the council. At the meeting, the council, on the recommendation of Mayor Hardwick and a motion by Dr. Ronald Rogers, with a second by Linda Waggener, approved Dustin Warren to be City Attorney. Mr. Warren will assume the office in January 2017, City Clerk Rhonda Loy said. Joining Rogers and Waggener in the vote of affirmation were Council Members Craig Dean, Craig Lasley, Pam Hoots, and Mark D. Harris. -- EW Read More... | Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

Christmas at City Hall Columbia: Visions of sugarplums . . . 2017-12-05 - City Hall, 116 Campbellsville Street, Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com. There's a little boy in all at Christmas time, and the dean of the Columbia City Council, Craig Dean, shows his here as he studies the top the staff-decorated Christmas tree in a playful moment before the last scheduled Council Meeting of the Year, Monday, December 4, 2017. Perhaps he has visions other than sugarplums for this holiday season -- perhaps of more Cardinal victories, perhaps of continued good times in Columbia. Cheer and good will, as usual, was the rule this season. -- EW Read More... | Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
