Gary Barton was recently selected as the provisional appointment to the Ripon City Council.

For the better part of the past six years, he served on the Ripon Planning Commission. However, Barton’s selection to the council seat left a vacancy on the commission.

The City of Ripon announced Tuesday the search for his replacement.

Those interested must reside within city limits are prohibited from having any connection with the City of Ripon.

They should have an interest in planning, zoning and other related matters to the City.

The Planning Commission usually meets on the Monday following the monthly scheduled Council meeting – unless it’s holiday, Commissioners will then meet the next Monday – at 6 p.m. in the Council Chambers, 259 N. Wilma Ave.

The appointment will be for a four-year term.

Applications are available at City Hall during business hours – between 7:30 a.m. and 5:30 p.m., Monday through Thursday.

The deadline to turn in applications is Tuesday, Feb. 8.
