Pratt City Commissioner Gary Schmidt will continue to serve as mayor of Pratt for 2021 with commissioner Don Peters taking office as vice-mayor, their appointments unanimously approved at the January 11 regular meeting at City Hall. Newly-elected commissioners Jeannette Siemens and Kyle Farmer were installed at the same meeting after taking the Oath of Office administered by City Clerk LuAnn Kramer.
Pratt City Manager Bruce Pinkall commended outgoing commissioners Doug Meyer and Jason Leslie for their service, presenting Meyer with a ‘Key to the City’ and Leslie with a desk plaque.
Meyer was not eligible to seek reelection because of Pratt city’s two-term limit provision and Leslie had announced prior to the election that he had opted not to seek a second term.
Meyer brings term-limit discussion to City of Pratt meeting

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.
