Council sponsor introduces staggered appointments for new Gas & Water Board
Summary
Councilman Mclofflin presented a resolution nominating five staggered appointments (Curtis Johnson, Tom Drew, Valerie Guzman, Michael Hegwood, Diana Mclofflin) to the new Clarksville Gas and Water Board; the board must be constituted before it recommends a director.
Councilman Mclofflin formally introduced a resolution recommending the initial appointments to the newly created Clarksville Gas and Water Board and explained the staggered terms designed so all members will not rotate off simultaneously.
Appointments listed: Curtis Johnson (term to June '27), Tom Drew (to June '28), Valerie Guzman (to June '29), Michael Hegwood (to June '30) and Diana Mclofflin (to December '26), with terms effective Jan. 26, 2026 as presented in the resolution.
Why it matters: The ordinance creating the Gas & Water Board requires the board to exist before it makes a recommendation for the gas-and-water director; the council discussion noted the slate includes former and current local officials representing different parts of the city.
What’s next: The resolution sponsor said the board will be stood up first and will later recommend a director for council consideration; the nominations were introduced for separate consideration and will be taken up in committee and at a future vote.
