Council vote fails to appoint Christian Armstrong to vacant seat
Summary
A motion to nominate and appoint Christian Armstrong to the vacant Taylor City Council seat failed on roll call (3 yes, 3 no, 1 abstention); the seat remains vacant and council provided no immediate alternate appointment.
Council considered a motion to nominate Christian Armstrong to fill a vacancy on the Taylor City Council per section 4.5 of the City Charter. The nomination was moved and seconded but failed on a roll-call vote: Winton yes; Rose no; Johnson yes; Daniels no; Bridal no; Geist abstained — resulting in three yes, three no and one abstention, so the appointment did not carry.
Council returned the matter to open business without appointing an alternate. There was no recorded debate on Armstrong's qualifications in the minutes other than the roll-call; a council member asked for the nominee's resume to be forwarded to members for review.
