Fennville fills two city commission seats
FENNVILLE After brief interviews Monday, the Fennville City Commission appointed two residents to fill the seats of a pair of commissioners who resigned.
Morgan Bolles and Erik Almquist gave up their seats to move out of the city. Elected officials must be residents.
Dan Rastall and Brenda Langston were selected from four applicants.
Rastall, a former mayor of Fennville, was appointed to serve out Almquist s remaining two and a half years, and Langston will finish Bolles term, which ends in November.
The city s process for appointing commissioners came under scrutiny after Bolles appointment in late 2019, when The Sentinel and other media outlets reported his involvement in the far-right Proud Boys group.
