Two seats were open but only one candidate filed the necessary paperwork and brought in the $2 check to seek a spot on the Altha Town Council during last week’s qualifying period.
Altha Town Clerk Carol Finuff said the candidate, Carol Anderson, will take one of the seats on the council. Since there was not a candidate for the second seat, Finuff said the council is expected to appoint someone for that spot.
She was not sure when the new council members would take office.
The council is scheduled to hold a budget meeting on June 30. Their next regular meeting will be July 2 at 6 p.m.
