Hunter to Take Office Three Weeks Early as Law Director
Garry Hunter, Republican winner in the November vote, will be sworn in Monday at 4 15 p m as Athens city law director three weeks before the usual swearing in. The move follows a legal quirk allowing an early oath for an unexpired term, with Richard Taylor stepping aside to avoid two lawyers in court during the year end. Hunter can attend City Council's session that night.
