Doug Peterson sworn in as interim Canton commissioner
Summary
The Canton commission appointed Doug Peterson to fill a vacant seat until the November election and administered the oath of office; commissioners approved the appointment by roll call.
Doug Peterson was appointed and sworn in as an interim commissioner to fill the seat vacated by Commissioner Pickers until the next annual election in November. The chair introduced the appointment and the commission moved and seconded the motion; a roll call recorded affirmative votes and the appointment was approved.
The commission then administered the oath to Peterson, who signed the requisite paperwork in open session. The swearing was read aloud by a staff member and marked the formal assumption of duties by Peterson.
The appointment fills an immediate vacancy on the commission; the city will follow the normal state and municipal timing that requires the seat to be filled only until the next scheduled election. No additional conditions or terms were stated during the meeting.
