(KNZA)--The Horton City Commission has approved a change to how its commissioners are titled.
At Monday's meeting, commissioners unanimously adopted a charter ordinance that replaces duty-specific titles with numbered seats.
Under the new system, Commissioner of Finance Michael Pierce will become Commissioner of Seat One. Commissioner of Streets and Utilities Natasha Gladden will become Commissioner of Seat Two. Commissioner of Parks and Recreation Josh White will become Commissioner of Seat Three, and Commissioner of Police Avery Thornton will serve as Commissioner of Seat Four.
Terms for Seats One and Two will run through January 2030. Seats Three and Four, along with the mayor’s position, will expire in January 2028.
The ordinance will take effect 61 days after its final publication in the local newspaper, unless a valid protest petition is filed.
