Fairview council selects Greg Custer as mayor pro tem; council members sworn and several board terms renewed
Summary
At its May 6 meeting the Fairview Town Council elected Greg Custer mayor pro tem, administered oaths of office for council seats 1, 3 and 5, and approved several board and commission appointments and reappointments.
The Fairview Town Council elected Councilmember Greg Custer as mayor pro tem at the start of its May 6 meeting and administered oaths of office to members sworn to serve council seats 1, 3 and 5. The nomination for mayor pro tem was made, seconded and approved by voice vote; the motion carried and the mayor pro tem then led the Pledge of Allegiance.
The mayor administered the oath of office for the three council seats present at the dais and Judge Whalen participated in administering the mayoral oath. Following the oath, the mayor read a proclamation declaring May 2025 as National Police Week in Fairview.
The council also approved several board and commission appointments. The mayor pro tem motioned to renew terms for three members of the town’s TIF board and to appoint three new or replacement members to other boards and commissions; the council voted to carry the motion. The motion text in the record named Rich Connolly, Sim Israloff, and Daryl Hale for renewed TIF terms and listed John Hubbard, Jill Hawkins and Larry Little as replacements for Ken Logsdon, Ricardo (recorded as Doer) and Henry (recorded as Lassner) on unspecified boards. The motion was seconded and passed by voice vote.
Consent agenda items A–E were approved on a single motion earlier in the meeting, and the council approved a separate motion to accept the consent agenda with no items removed.
Why this matters: the mayor pro tem presides in the mayor’s absence; oaths of office formally document the start of elected members’ terms; board and commission appointments determine memberships on bodies that advise or implement municipal projects.
What the record shows and does not show: the transcript records the nomination, a second and voice votes for these personnel actions; it does not include roll‑call vote tallies. The transcript does not provide agendas or terms of service for the specific boards to which individuals were assigned beyond the motion language in the meeting.
Speakers quoted or referenced in this article: John Hubbard, Mayor; Greg Custer, Councilmember (nominee and elected mayor pro tem); Judge Whalen (administered an oath).
