Who are these COUNCILORS that are mentioned in the Local Media?
I’ve been asked that question several times a week and have explained to the questioners that for some unknown reason the local media (several year ago) started to call our City Council Members councilors. It’s an old fashion way of referring to our City Council Members as councilors—perhaps just to confuse our residents and voters.
The correct title for the members serving on the City Council is City Council Member or councilman or councilwoman. This can be verified by reading Article VI, Section 601 of the City of Chico Charter—this can be found on the City’s website.
I doubt that the Editor of the newspaper wants to be called Manager, the Publisher called Finance Officer or the reporters called writers.
I hope this clarification will help our voters as they go to poll on Tuesday or are preparing their absentee ballots.
