Three new qualifying petitions have been signed
out by possible candidates to run for Crossville city council in the
upcoming November 8 election. Also, one additional petition has been
turned back in.
New potential candidates who have taken
out petitions include Robert E. Rob Harrison, long-time local
Crossville businessman who runs Plateau Properties, Scot Shanks,
another long time Crossville businessman and former owner of L. P.
Shanks. The third candidate is Jack E. Miller, former city manager
and interim city manager who lives in Holiday Hills.
Another candidate, Jeanette Parsons has
turned her petition back in, bringing to 3 the number of petitions
returned to the election commission. The other candidates who have
turned papers back in include former Mayor J. H. Graham and Teri
Manning.
Petitions previously taken out but not
yet returned include incumbent councilman Jesse Kerley, and Barry
Field. While Field took out papers, he does not qualify as a city
resident and is likely not elligible to run for a council seat.
In the race for Mayor of Crab Orchard,
Michael Findley and Emmett Sherrill have taken out qualifying papers
and Mr. Sherrill the incumbent has turned his back in.
The deadline to turn in qualifying
papers for the November election is August 18 at noon.
