Councilor Jan resigns at-large seat, creating an open council position

Jan told the council she would "officially resign from my at-large position for the city," creating a council vacancy that the city will fill according to council procedures. Members discussed whether she should resign publicly and confirmed that a councilor cannot hold two council seats at the same time.

Council reviewed the mechanics: the resigning member must vacate the prior seat and then can be sworn into a new seat if appointed. The council indicated it will accept applications for the open seat and encouraged residents to apply when the vacancy posting is published.
