The Springfield City Council formally accepted the resignation of one of its own Tuesday, declaring her seat vacant.
Victoria Doyle resigned over summer break, partway through her first term. In a statement shared by the city last month, Doyle said she was honored to have served and was focused on spending more time with family and work commitments.
Separately – Doyle is facing weapon charges after allegedly pointing a gun at another driver in an incident that occurred about two weeks after her resignation, according to Lookout Eugene-Springfield.
Springfield leaders said they plan to ask the public for input on what criteria they should use to select a new council member and a discussion on the process is scheduled for next week.
