In November of 2021 the City of Radford was missing a councilmember. Well, they weren’t really “missing” a councilmember; he had resigned before the end of his term to pursue a job opportunity elsewhere. But, missing or not, the remaining councilmembers had a vacant seat to fill. Normally, they would have appointed someone without too much fanfare to finish out the term. However, this time the City of Radford decided to bring the public into the process. It’s no mystery how this case was resolved, because the VML Voice — with some help from Radford Mayor Horton, Vice-Mayor Huntington, and Councilmember Harshberger — is here to tell you all about it!
