Impact analysis
There’s no specific dollar cost in the report, but filling the role and keeping city business moving could carry administrative costs.
No one benefits from his death; politically, other city officials or prospective appointees may gain influence as the vacancy is filled.
Fairmont residents could be harmed if the leadership gap delays city decisions or leaves neighborhoods less represented until the role is filled.
