Councilor At-Large Linda Morad tells WBSM News, she appears to have the votes necessary to become the next City Council President.

Morad says the Council reorganization meeting will take place on January 4th.

"Some of my colleagues have indicated to me that they would be happy to support me. I believe I have a majority of the councilors who will support me next week," said Morad.

When asked what issues she would like to see the council work on, Morad said she didn't want to count her chickens before they hatch, however economic development and cost controls are among the areas she's interested in.
