The council set the procedure for filling the District 1 vacancy at Monday’s meeting after hearing from City Attorney Ron Lawrence.

Under the approved resolution and procedure, applications will need to be submitted to the Goldsboro City Clerks Office by 5 PM on Friday, January 15.

The council will interview the qualified candidates at the February 1 meeting and make a final selection for the vacancy at the February 15 meeting.

The vacancy was created when Antonio Williams, the former District 1 representative, stepped down from the Goldsboro City Council in December following his election to the Wayne County Board of Commissioners.
