Columbia City Council report, June 7, 2010 In last night's meeting
By Ed Waggener In last night's City Council meeting, Columbia Mayor Pat Bell saved his biggest news for last: He will not seek re-election in 2010. The news became evident as the Mayor began a review of the accomplishments of his administration and gave thanks to members of the administration, the Council, and Community leaders. The mayor cited personal health reasons as his primary reason for leaving the job. He said that if he were 10 years younger, he could not be running away from City Hall.
