| Description |
The seven-member council voted 5-1 to appoint Shabro to the vacant auditor's office. Councilman Terry Lee was absent for the vote. Other potential appointees were Dick McEntee and Katie Blinn.
The appointment has been challenged by in court by the Democratic Party, claiming that the council should have been forced to appoint a Democrat because Pat McCarthy was elected as a Democrat before a 2007 charter amendment made the office nonpartisan.
A special election will be called in November to elect an auditor to fill the remainder of the term.
