ROANOKE, VA. โ On Monday, Roanoke City Council took the next steps to fill the open spot left by Djuna Osborneโs resignation. They whittled it down to their short list of replacements for Osborneโs seat in just three days. They brought them in for interviews with the city council on Monday afternoon. Out of 21 applicants, Joseph Clements, Beth Doughty, Alvin Nash, Luke Priddy and Vivian Sanchez-Jones were selected to compete for her council seat. โDjuna came in second place to Vice-Mayor Cobb in that election, Roanoke spoke very loudly that year that they wanted a Progressive in that seat, Luke is that person," Barbara Andes said.
