Arnold will keep its interim solicitor through 2022, and two council members have swapped committee assignments.

City council reorganized Tuesday following November’s municipal election.

Two members — Democrat Deborah Vernon and Republican Adam Zweig — ran unopposed for reelection. Mayor Joe Bia swore them back into office.

Vernon, who previously oversaw public safety, will now head accounts and finance. Councilman George Hawdon, who had overseen accounts and finance, takes over public safety from Vernon.

Other committee assignments that are unchanged are Bia, public affairs; Zweig, streets and public improvements; and Phillip McKinley, parks and buildings.

Jaclyn M. Shaw will continue as the city’s interim solicitor. Council appointed Shaw to the position in December after the Dec. 9 death of Solicitor David A. Regoli.

Arnold Council will hold its regular meetings at 7 p.m. on the second Tuesday of each month at the public safety building on Drey Street.
