MOUNT VERNON, Mo. — Lawrence County voters will decide a number of city council and school board races on Tuesday.

At Stotts City, voters will be asked whether they want the town to have a police chief. The town, which has a population of about 250, has not had a police chief in a long time, said a bartender at Donna’s Stotts City Bar.

Mayor Joel Margolis said the voters will be asked if they want the town’s Board of Aldermen to appoint a chief of police.

“The police chief would be hired by the board if voters approve the measure,” he said.
