Shelly Carlson is the new mayor of Moorhead. David Samson / The Forum
MOORHEAD Shelly Carlson was elected to the Moorhead City Council in November of 2018 to fill a Ward 2 seat that belonged to a council member who resigned in April of that year. I was elected on a Tuesday, and I started the following Monday. Apparently, that s the only way I do public service; I just start immediately, said Carlson, who experienced another abrupt change this past week when she was appointed to the job of mayor following the resignation of Johnathan Judd.
