Tarentum will accept applications for a soon-to-be vacant seat on borough council until Jan. 4.
Council on Tuesday accepted the resignation of 1st Ward Councilwoman Erika Josefoski. Her resignation is effective Dec. 31.
Josefoski, 36, announced her intention to resign earlier this month. She said she did not have enough time to devote to council duties while also juggling multiple jobs and homeschooling while Highlands students are fully remote because of the covid-19 pandemic.
Josefoski said she also was considering moving closer to her work.
While council voted just Tuesday to advertise for
letters of interest for the seat, the borough already has one candidate, former Councilman Raymond Kerr.
