SEPTEMBER 2, 2025 SPECIAL SESSION – CANVASSING BOARD
The City Council met in special session as the canvassing board on Tuesday, September 2, 2025,
at 9 am to review the returns from the August 26 municipal elections.
Those members present were as follows: Council President Ben Short
Councilor Jaime Anderson
Councilor Lisa Bright
Councilor Perry Cook
Councilor Alan Taylor
Others present in their official capacity: Mayor Buddy Choat
City Attorney Rick Stotser
City Clerk Dan Weinrib
The city clerk reported that ten provisional ballots were submitted to the Jefferson County Board
of Registrars. Of those, eight were confirmed city voters; their ballots would be added to the final tally. The
remaining two were Advent Circle voters who lived across the street from – thus outside of - the city limits.
While the canvassing board reviewed the election tapes, the city clerk opened eight sets of envelopes. Each
candidate for public office received at least one additional vote. The city clerk then announced the final
numerical total received by each candidate.
Councilor Taylor then moved, and Councilor Bright seconded the motion to approve a
proposed resolution certifying the results with the following outcomes:
Mayor-Elect Ben Short
Council Place No. 1-Elect Ben Horton
Council Place No. 3 Jaime Melton Anderon
Council Place No. 4-Elect Jim Miller
Council Place No. 5-Elect Kimberly Farr
UNANIMOUS Resolution No. 2025-38
With nothing left to review, President Short adjourned the meeting at 9:13 am.
Respectfully submitted,
