CLEVELAND, Tenn. – The Bradley County Commission on Monday appointed Cliff Eason to fill the District 4 vacancy created by the resignation of Howard Thompson.

Commission Chairman Louie Alford said Eason, who is principal of the Cleveland City School System’s alternative school, the Teen Learning Center, likely will be sworn into office Monday during the commission’s 7 p.m. meeting.

Eason was nominated by District 4’s other commission member, J. Adam Lowe. There were no other candidates.

Also, seven people asked Monday to be considered to fill a Cleveland City Council vacancy created April 27 with the death of Councilman Bill Robertson.

The City Council meets today at 1 p.m. to interview the candidates for the District 5 seat.
