Council names Council Member Chad Gardner mayor pro tem for March 16 meeting
Summary
Council nominated and voted March 2 to appoint Council Member Chad Gardner as mayor pro tem for the March 16 Maumelle council meeting; the motion carried by voice vote.
The Maumelle City Council appointed Council Member Chad Gardner to serve as mayor pro tem for the March 16 council meeting. Council Member Wesley nominated Gardner; the nomination received a second and the council approved the appointment by voice vote.
Council discussed the customary practice of offering the role to the longest-serving council member but proceeded with a nomination and vote. The mayor noted the appointee will preside at the upcoming meeting in the mayor’s absence.
The appointment was a procedural action and does not alter Gardner’s role as a council member beyond presiding at the single meeting.
