At election time, Edwards will stand down

Long time Walhalla Mayor Danny Edwards is departing for the political sidelines.  During city council’s June meeting, Edwards announced he will not be a candidate for re-election in November.  He said, “I truly appreciate the citizens of Walhalla giving me the opportunity to serve in my hometown.  I would also like to thank all the council members I have served with….” In his time, the retired car dealer helped push downtown rev-vitalization and, against detractors, was a strong advocate for a walking trail that is to connect the city with recreation offerings in the higher elevations north of the city.
