Corner Pocket’s Starnes running for GCS City Council
GREEN COVE SPRINGS – Cheri Starnes, owner of The Corner Pocket, became the first candidate to file her pre-qualifying paperwork on Monday, June 30, to run for Seat 4 on the City Council.
Starnes is seeking to replace former Mayor Thomas Smith, who resigned unexpectedly on June 16, citing increasing workplace demands.
“I love the city, and I understand that there's a real fine line between our community as citizens and what the city needs,” Starnes said. “I'm hoping that my background will be able to help bring clarity to making both those things balance out. I enjoy giving back, and I think that I can make a difference.”
Candidates can visit clayelections.gov and click on the "Candidates and Committees" tab, then select "Running for Office" to view details on how to file for candidacy. The deadline for filing for the Sept. 23 special election is Aug. 25.
