Laurel Park Welcomes Two New Council Members

On December 15, 2009, Laurel Park welcomed two new council members: Dona Mennella and Carey O'Cain. This will be Dona Mennella's third term to serve as a Laurel Park town commissioner and Carey O'Cain's first term. Senator Tom Apodaca swore both new members in to their posts. Mr. O'Cain is president of the Laurel Park Civic Association and looks to be a promising new addition to the town council. I am also happy to report that the Council was gracious enough to elect me as Vice-Mayor for the next two years. I am very honored by this.

I would like to extend my congratulations and warm welcome to my fellow council members as they join me, Bob Vickery, Mayor Henry Johnson and Town Manager Jim Ball on the town council. We hope to see many more people at future council meetings as well. So, please check with the Laurel Park government website to find out when new public meetings are scheduled. We always love to hear from you.
