Jewett swears in new council member

A vacancy occurred on the Jewett village council when member George “Bo” Bailie moved into the mayor’s seat after the passing of former mayor Dwight Busby. Bailie has been the acting mayor ever since and plans to run in the November election. On Wednesday, Bailie’s council seat was filled when he swore in Steve Stewart (left) after council member Rick Meneely’s motion to nominate passed unanimously.
