Welcome New City Councilor Leona Sander-Hunter!

Post date: Apr 14, 2017 5:38:07 PM

On March 23rd, 2017 the Vader City Council appointed Leona Sander-Hunter to fill vacant Council Position #5. This seat became vacant back in January when Councilor Elect Ruth Crear resigned.

Mrs. Sander-Hunter moved to Vader at the end of 2015 when she took ownership of the family home on C Street. Her grandfather, Jesse Brown, who served as Mayor of Vader from 1972-1975, lived in the home for many years. Leona has fond memories of spending Summer vacation and other holidays here in Vader and she and her husband are looking forward to serving the community she now calls home.

This Council position along with two others will be up for re-election of a 2-year term this fall. Election filing dates are May 15-19 and information can be found on the Lewis County Candidate Filing webpage.
