Adam Cline has been appointed to the Tullahoma Planning Commission, replacing long-time member Bill Comer.

The announcement came during the regular meeting of the city board of mayor and aldermen. Mayor Lynn Sebourn pointed to Comer’s years of service before revealing the selection of his replacement.

With Comer’s departure, the mayor said the selection was made to name Cline as heir to the seat left behind by the long-time public servant.

Along with appointing a new member to the planning commission, the mayor announced a seat is opening on the Tullahoma Utilities Board for a term expiring Aug. 31 of this year. Deadline to apply for the TUA spot was Aug. 15.
