City of Edna signs agreement with floodplain coalitioin

    The Edna City Council canceled its May election at the March 5 council meeting. The last day to file for a position on the ballot was Feb. 27. Three positions were up for re-election, mayor, currently held by Joe D. Hermes and Dist. I and II council seats currently held by Richard Browning and William Selders, respectively.
    Hermes filed for his position, but Browning and Selders did not. However, Doug Kelley filed for the Dist. I seat and Wayne Callis filed for the Dist. II seat, thus eliminating the need to hold an election. All three positions become effective May 9, the day of the scheduled election.
