WATERTOWN â Seven people have expressed interest in filling the seat that will soon be vacant with the resignation of Councilman Jesse C.P. Roshia. Mayor Jeffrey M. Smith said Tuesday that heâs received letters of interest from seven people, but he had not heard from former council candidate Calvin Stanley that he was taking his name out of contention but will run for election in November. The deadline for submitting a letter of interest and resume is officially Sunday, but the mayor will accept one through Tuesday. The entire council will appoint Councilman Roshiaâs replacement. Council members will whittle down that number before deciding on the process of how to appoint a new council member. They could decide to interview them together, on their own or through Zoom, the mayor said.
