Haggerty, who served on the council from 2021-23, was appointed to the council on Monday. He fills the seat that was vacated when former city council member Bruce Zenner resigned last month for personal reasons.
Five residents applied for the position, and the council voted 3-1 to appoint Haggerty. Council member Tim Conrad was the lone dissenter.
“It was a tough decision,” said Mayor Keith Franke. “We had a lot of good, qualified people apply, but Jeff’s previous council experience really stood out. Former council members, a former mayor and staff reached out to me on his behalf. His application was, like, five or six pages long. Compared to everybody else, he really paid attention to the details.”
Haggerty, a lifelong resident of the city, was sworn in on the spot, Franke said.
Haggerty, a senior manufacturing engineer at Abbott, will fill the remainder of Zenner’s term until the November election.
