Here in Chattanooga, Mayor Tim Kelly won a second term - and three incumbents on the city council were reelected - in Tuesday’s municipal elections.
Two city council races - District 6 and District 8 - face runoff elections on Tuesday, April 8th.
Depending on the outcome of those runoffs, up to six new members could join the council next month.
And, Chattanooga voters approved a change to the city charter, allowing city employees to live outside the State of Tennessee.
