The Front Royal Town Council selected Jacob Meza to fill the unexpired term of Mayor Chris Holloway.

Meza’s experience on the Town Council and Planning Commission set him apart from the other candidates.

The loss of Mayor Tewalt and Vice-Mayor Sealock played a factor in his selection.

Meza has vast knowledge of the EDA lawsuit, infrastructure projects, COVID-19 and the Town’s budget.

Town Council will hold a special election in November 2021 for the seat.
