PINSON, Ala.–A list of the eight applicants who are seeking the position of Place 3 in the Pinson City Council has been released.
The list includes two former members of the city government, three members of the planning and zoning commission, youth sports volunteers, and several “newer” residents, said Mayor Robbie Roberts.
“I was quite pleased to see a large number of applicants for the recent opening on the City Council,” said Roberts. “We have a total of eight, and they each have a desire to join the Council and me in serving the community. Given the impressive backgrounds of all of them it certainly won’t be an easy decision, but I look forward to working with whoever is selected.”
They are:
- Robert Anderson
- LaTesha Cady
- David ‘Chase’ Callahan
- Chris Esquire
- Mike O’Toole
- Hoyt Sanders
- Paula Sims
- Dawn Tanner
Sanders had previously served as mayor of Pinson, being the first when it was incorporated in 2015. He ran for reelection in 2020 but lost to Joe Cochran. Tanner was a councilor who occupied Place 1 and resigned in 2022.
