St. Joseph has a new city councilmember.
The St. Joseph City Council appointed Jason Eslinger to fill the remainder of District II Councilmember Taylor Crouse’s term. Crouse resigned from the city council, saying family matters forced a move out of the district.
Six southside residents showed interest in the position at first with five submitting a letter of intent and resume for the city council to consider.
Councilmembers ranked those applying and voted on the top two.
Eslinger will be sworn in prior to a special council meeting April 9th.
