Monday's meetings were the last for the present composition of the seven-member Mesa City Council - District 4 Councilmember Chris has been termed-out after occupying a seat for the past eight years. Mayor John Giles referred to that 8-year time span as marking 'the end of an era'.
Tomorrow will see the swearing-in of one new woman to join the all-male cast - Jennifer Duff who barely eked-out a victory in the November 2018 General Election over Chris Glover's second cousin [endorsed by both him and D2 Councilmember Mark Freeman] by less than 300 votes.
Glover has registered a political action committee with the Mesa's City Clerk's office to run for mayor in 2020.
