Bowmanstown has ushered in 2022 under new leadership.

Borough council on a 6-0 vote at its reorganization meeting on Tuesday appointed Pam Leiby as board chairman.

Afterward, council deadlocked 3-3 when it came time to appoint a board vice chairman between Councilmen Darren Thomas and William Ravert.

Those who voted in favor of Thomas were Councilwoman Donna Winter, Leiby and Thomas.

In favor of Ravert were Councilwoman Kara Scott, Councilman Rob Moyer and Ravert.

In the absence of Councilwoman Candace Rodrigues, Mayor Zach Snyder, in his capacity as mayor, broke the tiebreaker when he cast the deciding vote by voting for Thomas.

Afterward, council on a 4-2 vote approved Thomas as board vice chairman, with Ravert and Scott opposed.
