The mayor of Flowery Branch, Ed Asbridge, announced that he would not seek re-election at the city council meeting Thursday night.
Post 5 Councilman Oliver McClellan announced that he would seek the position, and Asbridge gave his support to McClellan.
“My report is only that Mr. McClellan and I talked about that, and I will be throwing my support behind Oliver McClellan,” Asbridge said.
With McClellan running for mayor, the council will have an open seat.
Before being elected mayor in 2021, Asbridge served as the Post 2 councilman.
