Council appoints Dr. Mutchler

The seat was left vacant when Josh Ray moved from Ward 3

Posted

Dr. Jeffrey Mutchler will fill the Lebanon Ward 3 City Council seat that was vacated by Josh Ray last month.

Ray moved out of the ward and was unable to continue serving on the Council.

Mutchler’s appointment was approved unanimously at Monday night’s Council meeting but he could not be sworn in because City Clerk Laina Starnes was not present.

Mutchler is an orthopedic surgeon who practices at Mercy Hospital Lebanon.
