Three newly-elected members, plus a new mayor took the oath of office last week for the Bowie City Council, but there remains one vacancy.
Applications for citizens interested in filling the vacancy in the precinct one north seat are now being accepted.
The seat was previously filled by Gaylynn Burris who was appointed to fill the place of Scott Davis in June when he was named to fill the term when the former mayor resigned. Burris ran unopposed for mayor and took her post last Thursday.
The applicant must have resided in the north precinct for at least six months and be a registered voter.
The city council has 30 days in which to fill the position. The appointee would serve the one year left on the term. Applications are available from the city secretary or call 872-1114, ext. 21.

City of Bowie officials were on hand to inspect the emergency electrical generators that were delivered last week.
Mayor Gaylynn Burris and City Manager Bert Cunningham inspected one of three emergency electrical generators purchased as part of an ongoing Federal Emergency Management Agency Hazard Mitigation Grant. They also talked with Jay Evans, head of the city electric department, and Jerry Sutton, director of the water treatment plant about the next step for installation of the generators.
This grant provides funding for one 150 kW and two 250 kW generators for use at the water treatment plant.
