Judge Cyrus “Buck” Allen seated Mayor Pro Tem Amy Phillips to another term on the Avon Town Council on Tuesday and also swore in first-term councilmembers RJ Andrade and Lindsay Hardy.
As a first order of business, the new councilmembers voted to retain Sarah Smith Hymes for another two years as mayor, a position she has held for the last two years. Hymes was nominated by Hardy, and no other councilmembers received nominations.
Acting as temporary mayor to preside over a transition between the two councils, Jennie Fancher congratulated Hymes for the uncontested victory.
“I don’t think we’ve had a unanimous vote for mayor since I’ve been on council,” Fancher said.
