After interviewing candidates

Brenda Hubka, Joel Moore, PJ Kolnik and Tena Prange, discussed who would be the best t to temporarily ll the seat, narrowing the candidates to Moore and Kolnik. e council agreed Hubka and Prange would do well in the position but felt because they’re both members of the Englewood Planning & Zoning Commission there would be an issue when voting on CodeNext. ey also agreed CodeNext is one of the biggest issues the council will work on in the next few months along with determining the city’s budget.

“I thought that both Tena Prange and Brenda Hubka did really well in their interviews but the only hesitation I have as I re ect on them is they’re obviously very familiar with CodeNext but I wonder if they’re not too familiar and if any of that would be bring some kind of con ict of interest,” District 3 Councilmember Joe Anderson said.
