The Hamilton County Commission on Wednesday voted 9-0 to appoint Marc Gravitt as the interim District 30 representative to the Tennessee House.
The seat became vacant after Vince Dean resigned to assume his duties as the newly elected Hamilton County Criminal Court Clerk.
While the appointment is effective today, Mr. Gravitt will officially be sworn into office at 11 a.m. (EST) on Tuesday, Sept. 30, in Nashville.
Mr. Gravitt, who currently is on the East Ridge Commission, was the only candidate for the House seat.
