An Update From Yesterday

Option 2, which was the proposal that extended Council Terms by our own vote, was mutually agreed to be taken off the table. Thank you to everyone who contacted Council and shared your voice!

Moving forward, Council will likely entertain a few other options that move our elections away from federal cycles (which will likely have both pros and cons); yet, the message was clear - empower the voters to be at the forefront, however this narrative unfolds.

I am so appreciative of Council's decision in this case and thank my colleagues for their role in our united direction.

As always, I will be sure to keep you all posted on this and other issues before our City.

Best,


Chris Faraldi, M.A.
Ward IV Representative
Lynchburg City Council
