Council extends application window for vacant seat to Oct. 7
Summary
The council unanimously voted to extend the application deadline to Oct. 7 for the vacant council seat after questions about an applicant’s residency; no appointment was made at the Sept. 24 meeting.
Mayor Cameron Kinney invited applicant Janelle Dente to speak about her interest in filling the vacant council seat. Dente said she had lived in Carlin for more than 20 years but acknowledged she had not lived here continuously and described her primary address as Carlin. Councilmember Lyndsie Whigham and Denise Taylor expressed concern about whether Dente met the two-year primary residency requirement.
Whigham moved to extend the application window until Oct. 7 at 4 p.m. to allow additional applicants; Denise Taylor seconded. The motion passed unanimously. Because no appointment was made, the council took no action to swear in a new member at that meeting.
