Schmooze City Commission · April 27, 2026

Summary

The commission appointed James Halstead to a four‑year term on the Schubert Public Library Board to replace Dean Parsons; his term runs May 1, 2026–April 2030, and the appointment was made by the mayor with commission consent.

The commission appointed James Halstead to the Schubert Public Library Board of Trustees to fill a four‑year vacancy created by Dean Parsons's decision to step down.

City Manager Todd Newman relayed a recommendation from Library Director Gina Lawrence that Halstead — who has teaching and accounting experience and is an avid longtime library user — would be a suitable appointee.
