EAST BUTLER — Borough council voted unanimously Monday, July 1, to appoint Dean Vincent to council, filling a seat left vacant by the resignation of councilwoman Sharon Hilliard about two months ago.

Mayor Shawn Nagy said after Monday’s council meeting Hilliard resigned from council for personal health reasons.

Vincent will be sworn in during the borough’s meeting scheduled for Aug. 5.

Council also said attendance at a fundraising concert June 22 was good, and money raised through ticket sales would be used to fund maintenance at the East Butler Sports Complex, which is where the concert took place.

Tom Smith, the borough’s solicitor, said the money would be deposited into a bank account specifically created for transactions related to the sports complex. The amount raised by the concert, headlined by country music artist Gary Burk III, had not yet been calculated.

Smith said the money may be the first deposited into the account. Borough council president Kevin Hesidenz reinforced at the meeting that money would be used on maintenance at the fields.

“All the money that was brought in up there with that concert is going to go back into the complex to fix it up,” Hesidenz said. “That’s what we’re trying to do, is try to get some money to come in, funding to come in for fixing that complex up.”

Hesidenz also lauded Atlantic Coast Baseball, a Trafford-based company that hosts games and tournaments on the baseball fields at the sports complex.

“They played 12 games last weekend, 11 games this weekend; there were teams from Canada, Michigan, New York, Rhode Island, Connecticut,” Hesidenz said.
