A special election was called by the Smyrna City Council for Nov. 7 to fill the Ward 3 post left vacant when Mayor Pro Tem and Councilwoman Teri Anulewicz resigned Sept. 6.

As a Democrat, Anulewicz has filed paperwork to run for the House District 42 post left vacant when Smyrna attorney and Democrat Stacey Evans resigned Sept. 5 to run for governor.

Qualifying for the Ward 3 post on the Smyrna City Council will be held 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Sept. 18-19 and 8:30 a.m. to noon Sept. 20 at the Smyrna City Hall, 2800 King St.

If she did not resign now, Anulewicz said the city would have to hold a costly special election in March to fill that position.
