Peachtree City councilor for Post 4 resigns to focus on health and family
Summary
An unnamed city official announced the acceptance of the resignation of Frank (surname variably spelled in transcript) from Peachtree City Council Post 4, citing cancer recovery and family priorities and listing his prior public service.
An unnamed staff member announced during a Peachtree City meeting that they had accepted the resignation of Frank (surname appears as both “DiStadio” and “Destadio” in the transcript), who held Council Post 4, saying he is focusing on his health and his family while continuing cancer recovery.
The staff member, speaking at the public meeting, said, “it is with a heavy heart that I accepted Frank Destadio's resignation from city council post 4. Frank is focusing on his health and his family as he continues his cancer recovery.” The staff member added, “we all wish him well.”
The staff member reviewed the councilor’s public service record during the announcement, saying he served 30 years in the U.S. Air Force, served on the Fayette County Water Board, and sat on Peachtree City’s planning commission for 11 years, seven of them as chairman. The staff member noted the councilor ran for the Post 4 seat in 2021.
The transcript did not record a formal council vote or specify the process or timeline for filling the Post 4 vacancy. It also did not clarify the variant spellings of the councilor’s surname beyond the speaker’s two renderings.
Because the meeting transcript does not record next steps for replacing the council seat, it is not specified whether the seat will be filled by appointment or special election.
