Gomez, Boutwell Sworn In As Century Council Members

March 11, 2017

Two members of the Century Town Council were sworn into office during a special meeting Friday night.

Luis Gomez, Jr. was sworn into Seat 2 after defeating Kevin Stead in a February 28 special election to  fill the seat for the remainder of the term of Annie Savage, who passed away last year.

Ben Boutwell was sworn into Seat 3 after running unopposed in the February 28 special election.  Boutwell held the seat until resigning to run unsuccessfully for mayor. He was later temporarily appointed to fill the position until the special election.
