Buffalo News story by Brian Meyer has some information on each of the candidates. Though Council President David Franczyk is not in his office this afternoon to make comment, it is expected that the candidates will be looked over, with one meeting council approval for the seat soon. That person will serve until December of 2010.

That's the Ellicott District. Cary Street, Georgia, and Whitney Place can all be seen. Trezevant's house is just out of the picture on the left and Roger's house is just out of the picture on the right. Niagara is in the back ground.
