Council appoints replacement to fill Place 2 vacancy

Town of Lakeside City Council · December 11, 2025

Summary

The Lakeside City Council voted unanimously Dec. 11 to appoint Jonah Power to fill the vacant Council Place 2 seat; the council asked staff to note options for future vacancy procedures and spelling discrepancies in the minutes were recorded.

The Town of Lakeside City Council voted 4–0 on Dec. 11 to appoint Jonah Power to fill the vacant Council Place 2 seat previously held by Ben Forehand. Council Member Chris Ayers moved to appoint Jonah Power; Council Member Rona Stratton Gouyton seconded the motion, which carried without opposition.

The appointment closed the only formal personnel action on the agenda. The minutes record the motion’s language as "Jonah Power" while the council roster earlier in the minutes lists "Jon Powers" in Place 5; the council did not address that inconsistency during the meeting. The council did not discuss further action on the vacancy beyond the appointment and did not place additional procedural steps on the record.
