The Lincoln City Council will push back its vote on a new at-large member a week because of the large number of applicants.
The vote was originally scheduled for Monday, but Council Chair Jane Raybould said council members agreed that another week is needed to review the 24 applications. The vote will instead be taken June 10.
One applicant was unintentionally left off a list released by the city Tuesday. Democrat Isabel Salas is a community builder for the South of Downtown Community Development Organization.Â
The open council seat was created when former Council member Leirion Gaylor Baird was sworn in as mayor.
