After the resignation of two members of the city council, the city of Nixa is looking to its citizens to temporarily fill those empty seats.
City Director of Communications Drew Douglas tells Ozarks First that so far, only one person has shown serious interest.
Council member Justin Orf says on social media he resigned to pursue other educational and professional goals. A post on council member Amy Hoogstraet’s page says she stepped down because of hate and defamation she says she experienced on a constant basis.
The deadline to sign-up for one of the open seats has been extended to this Friday.
More on the story can be found on the Ozarks First Website.
