Davis has served more than six years on Lakeville's Planning Commission.
Longtime Planning Commissioner Bart Davis has been unanimously selected by members of Lakeville's City Council to fill the group's vacant seat. Davis was one of seven candidates to be interviewed.

In an interview with Sun Thisweek, Davis …

Residents have until Jan. 24 to apply to fill the open City Council seat; review will be held Jan. 29 with a final selection will be made in February.
Lakeville's 2013 City Council outlined its plan Monday to fill the vacant seat created by Matt Little's election to mayor. Anyone living in Lakeville can apply to fill Little's vacated council seat, per a resolution approved by the new council on Jan. 7. Applications will be accepted until Jan. 24. On Jan. 29, the council will review applications at a work session, and proceed to interviews if needed. A final replacement will be added to the council in mid-February. When then-Councilor Little was elected to mayor on Nov. 6 last year, his council seat—and the final two years of the term—were to become vacated when he took the oath of office for mayor. That happened on Jan. 7. The council is following the same mold it used last time a …
