On Thursday, March 12, Greenville Town Council met to swear in council members and elect a new mayor and vice mayor. Since former mayor, Kovacherick Arnold's, term had ended, Town Clerk, Kim Reams, conducted the special meeting. Reams swore in council members Barbara Dansey and Calvin Malone for another term, then nominations were made for mayor. Council member, Elesta Pritchett, nominated Alphonso Young, to which he politely declined. Next, former mayor, Kovacherick Arnold, nominated Barbara Dansey. Council member, Calvin Malone, made a second, to which Mrs. Dansey accepted. The council then voted unanimously to elect Dansey as Greenville's new mayor. After Dansey was elected mayor, Council member Alphonso Young nominated Mrs. Elesta Pritchett as vice mayor. Mayor Dansey made a second and Pritchett accepted. The council proceeded to vote unanimously.
