Summary

Council Member Randy Odenthal submitted his resignation to the Heidelberg City Council on March 9, effective two months from submission unless a replacement is identified earlier; the council did not record a final action on the vacancy at the meeting.

Council Member Randy Odenthal told the Heidelberg City Council on March 9 that he has submitted his resignation, which will take effect two months from the date of submission unless a replacement is found to assume the seat earlier. The resignation was recorded during the Administrator’s report and no formal vote or appointment was taken at the meeting.

Administrator/Clerk Tracy Prochaska noted the resignation in her report to the council and also presented routine administrative items including a request to send reminder letters to residents about spring yard clean-up and vehicle registration tabs. The resignation creates a vacancy timeline the council will have to manage according to local procedures; the minutes do not specify whether the vacancy will be filled by appointment or special election or provide a date of submission beyond the March 9 meeting notation.

The meeting record contains no further discussion about successor recruitment or schedule for filling the seat. The council’s next regular meeting is scheduled for April 6, 2026, which may be used for preliminary discussion of replacement options if desired by members.
