ST. CLAIRSVILLE Questions and confusion about the latest nominations to fill two expiring terms on the city recreation board for the J.B. Martin Recreation Center dominated the Monday teleconference meeting of St. Clairsville City Council.
After more than a half-hour of debate, council voted in favor of current board members Diane Schubert and Alicia Freeman, daughter of Councilwoman Linda Jordan. Their terms had been set to expire April 17. Each will serve another five-year term.
Councilman Perry Basile had nominated Lisa Amos.
Council members were unsure if one or both terms were set to expire this month, and some members suggested putting off the vote until a later meeting until this could be determined. When Jordan did not withdraw her nomination of Freeman, Law Director Elizabeth Glick consulted prior council minutes and found Schubert had filled an ongoing term rather than a complete one, and so both of the council’s nominations were open.

Harry Sou had devoted two decades to building a Chinese restaurant empire in far north Queensland, serving up to 1000 hungry international tourists a time from its base at the Cairns casino.
Now he has retreated from five restaurants to a 50-seat venue off a service station car park that caters for locals and the occasional road-tripper.
âIâd like to think this pandemic is only once in 100 years,â Sou quips. âI donât think bad luck will come so regularly ⦠nothing like this scale.â
