Shane Says So Long

SOLdotna City Council member Shane Horan has announced his resignation from his post.

Shane has been a consistently reasonable member of the council. Most of his decisions have been based on logic and integrity and we'll all be a bit more SOL in SOLdotna without his voice.

Shane's resignation comes shortly after his bill to ban smoking in public places failed to be considered for the lack of a second when the motion was introduced. Curiously, the bill was introduced by Scott McLane and Shane could have seconded the motion - but sat as silently as the other council members.

Shane's replacement will be made by the SOLdotna City Council. Those interested in filling his seat until the October municipal election should monitor the City of SOLdotna web site for details (and what's up with that yellow text on a yellow background?)
