Paris City Commissioner Drew Griffin moved out of the city limits of Paris, Illinois in the July/August 2020 timeframe. This can be seen on the address listed on his most recent Statement of Economic Interest (
here) and from information obtained from the County Treasurer s office related to the recording of the sale of the property.
Almost a year ago, July 31, 2020 was when the purchase of his new home was recorded, with the sale of his former residence recorded in September 2020.
He should have resigned from his elective office once he moved his residence, but both Mayor S. Craig Smith and Drew Griffin are somehow convinced he can remain in office, while not being a resident of the city. Incidentally, both Mayor Smith and Commissioner Griffin are attorneys in Paris.
