Village of Pinehurst Council Appoints New Member to Fill Vacant Seat

By Staff Report, posted 1 year ago

During a special meeting on Monday, Aug. 21, the Village of Pinehurst Council members unanimously voted to appoint Tom Hennie to fill the empty council seat after Jane Hogeman’s death in July.

In accordance with North Carolina law, the Village Council appointed Hennie to fill the vacant position on the Council to serve the remainder of Mrs. Hogeman’s term, which expires Nov. 30, 2023.

The appointment came after interviews with three of the four applicants: Kevin Drum, Tom Hennie, and Brandon Lankford. Applicant Brett Anthony was not available for an interview.

Hennie is a familiar face to the Village of Pinehurst as an active Citizens on Patrol (C.O.P.) member with the Police Department.

Tom Hennie will take the oath of office and be seated as a Pinehurst Councilmember during their next meeting, Tuesday, Sept. 12, at 4:30 p.m., in Assembly Hall at 395 Magnolia Road.
