On Tuesday evening at 6 p.m., members of the Hackett City Council, special events committee and newly elected Mayor Trini Harper were sworn into office.
Sebastian County Quorum Court District 3 Representative Shawn Looper was on hand to administer the oath. Harper succeeds former Mayor Leroy Stephens. The Hackett City Council members are Jodi Been, Louis Kirkendall , Allison Null, Mike Opolka, Michelle Stayton and Kevin Stiles.
Some of Harpers family and friends were there to witness the occasion. Her children and five grandchildren also call Hackett home and attend Hackett Schools. She’s a member of the Methodist church and has served on the city planning and special events committee for 10 and 12 years respectively.
Harper said she is ready for the challenge, and is “looking forward to seeing what the future holds.”
