Council appoints Russell Day to Parks advisory panel and David Shellhorst to Planning Commission
Summary
Mayor Williams nominated Russell Day to the Parks & Recreation Advisory Committee and David Shellhorst to the Planning Commission; the council confirmed both appointments unanimously, with Shellhorsts term running through January 2028.
Mayor Bridal S. Williams moved two appointment items forward to recognize nominees present in the chamber and to allow them to attend later events. Russell Day was nominated for the Parks and Recreation Advisory Committee; the mayor cited Days local involvement and family ties to the recreation program and the council voted unanimously to approve the appointment.
The mayor also nominated David Shellhorst to fill the Planning Commission vacancy left by the retirement of Bob Bigger; Williams outlined Shellhorsts background in public-sector economic development and said Shellhorst would serve through January 2028. Council members who spoke supported Shellhorst's selection, and the council confirmed the appointment unanimously. Shellhorst did not speak at length during the meeting but was acknowledged and congratulated by the mayor and council members.
