Outgoing Pratt City Commissioner Doug Meyer would like to the opportunity to continue serving his community as a city commissioner, but term-limits currently in place negate that possibility. He brought the issue to discussion at the December 7 Pratt City Commission meeting, and again to the Monday, December 21 meeting, after seeking commuinty input.
The Monday meeting, planned to be Zoom available, was derailed by technical issues.
The term-limit regulation was put in place a decade ago as a result of a public vote held in a special election. Currently, city commissioners serve three-year terms and are eligible to run for a second three-year term, but not for a third term.

Pratt city commissioners are seeking public input regarding whether the current two-term limit ordinance that has been in place for 10 years should be continued or rescinded before voting on the issue at their regular Monday, December 21 meeting.
At the December 7 Commission meeting, held on Zoom, Commissioner Doug Meyer who was not eligible to run for a third term in November requested vote on the matter be postponed to give Pratt voters opportunity to express their opinions.
“I don’t want to do something that gives appearance of doing something behind closed doors,” said Meyer.

President of OSF HealthCare St. Francis Robert Anderson said individuals who received the vaccine first were determined by how much contact they had with COVID positive individuals.
“People should seriously consider [getting the vaccine] to help get this COVID thing kicked out so we can get back to some kind of normalcy,” said vaccine recipient Evelyn Tatum.
Another recipient, Doug Meyer, said he was excited for what the vaccine could bring.
“Everyone’s tired of being at home or wearing their mask,” said Meyer. “Everyone wants to just get over it and get back to normal.”
