Altadena Town Council chair Bernardean Broadous has sent out an email notice announcing that the council will consider applications for the vacancy in Census Tract 4603.02.
No one ran for the open council seat in last month's elections.
Resident Ron Adams had submitted an application for the seat after the election and was to be appointed at the July town council meeting, but the council decided to keep the position open another month to allow more candidates to come forward.
Applications are available at the Altadena Community Center, 730 E. Altadena Drive. Application fee is $35. According to the email from Broadous, the council will take action on the candidates after an executive board has been seated -- another action that was delayed at the July council meeting.
According to the town council bylaws, the council can fill vacant seats by appointment.
