City Council President Paul Krekorian announced that he wants the council, at its next meeting, to appoint Heather Hutt to fill out the remainder of Ridley-Thomas' unexpired term, which runs until December 2024.
But that caretaker title figures to change in about two weeks following City Council President Paul Krekorian's announcement Thursday night that he wants the council, at its next meeting, to appoint Hutt to fill out the remainder of Ridley-Thomas' unexpired term, which runs until December 2024.
"While charges against Mr. Ridley-Thomas were pending, the Council appointed Heather Hutt to hold the office of Council member for District 10 `for so long as the temporary vacancy continues to exist.' Because the vacancy of this office is no longer temporary but is now permanent, Ms. Hutt's temporary appointment is no longer in force and the Council must decide what action, if any, to take to address this vacancy.
"Mark Ridley-Thomas has been convicted of multiple felonies following a trial on charges described in the federal indictment of Oct. 13, 2021," Krekorian said.
