She is technically serving her third term as mayor after reelection a few years ago. Her first term started in the early 1990s. "I was in HR here locally, and then the company downsized. So, I took a job out of town as an HR manager," she explained. "I moved back nine years ago.

I just got reelected again two years ago." Article continues... click title or click here to read whole article. 2024-11-21 01:10:11 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Local Government
