[January 02, 2013]
Due to the death of Alderman
Orville "Buzz" Busby, the city of Lincoln has a vacancy in the
office of alderman for the current Ward 4. Lincoln Mayor Keith
Snyder has requested that anyone interested in filling the vacancy
should submit credentials to him no later than noon on Thursday,
Jan. 3. The materials submitted should include a letter of interest
in the position and a resume outlining the candidate's experience
and background.

Interested applicants must be registered voters in and legal
residents of the current Ward 4. That ward is roughly bounded by
Union Street to the west, Keokuk Street to the north, the city's
easternmost boundary to the east and the former Illinois Central
Railroad right of way to the south. A map of the current Ward 4 is
available in the Lincoln city clerk's office.
Interested applicants are encouraged to submit electronic copies
of their materials to Snyder via email to
mayor@cityoflincoln-il.gov. If applicants only have hard copies
of their materials, those may be submitted to the mayor's office in
City Hall.
Under Lincoln city ordinances, the mayor has the authority to
fill by appointment, and with the advice and consent of the city
council, any vacancy in an office of alderman. The appointment to
this Ward 4 vacancy will be for the remainder of Alderman Busby's
term, thus, through April 30.
