December 16th marked the last Fishers City Council meeting for 2019, but it also was the final session for three key Fishers leaders. Council President Rich Block, Council Vice President Eric Moeller and Deputy Mayor Leah McGrath will all be moving on in 2020.
Rich Block and Eric Moeller lost their re-election bids in the 2019 general election. Leah McGrath is leaving for a job in the private sector, at Knowledge Services, a technology firm. She has also announced her intention to run for a seat in the Indiana House of Representatives.
Mayor Scott Fadness presented each of the three with a remembrance of their time with the city in a City Council ceremony.
As a reporter covering Fishers as both a town and a city since 2012, I can say all three have made major contributions to the community we call Fishers. Whether you agreed or disagreed with their decisions, they all had the best interests of the city, and its residents, at heart.
