KINGSLAND - Kingsland City Council meetings have been cancelled until after the Nov. 5 elections after the mayor and two councilmen resigned to run for higher office. <br>
<br>
The departure of Mayor Keith Dixon, Kenneth Smith and Jimmy Johnson left the council a quorum. <br>
<br>
Johnson and Smith resigned this week to run for mayor after Dixon stepped down to run for state representative. <br>
<br>
City Manager Dayton Gillette said the city should run smoothly until the vacant city council seats are filled. <br>
<br>
Issues that need a council vote, such as re-zoning requests, will have to wait until November, Gillette said. <br>
<br>
Councilman Warren Bennett will be acting mayor until a Sept. 17 special election between Smith and Johnson to complete Dixon's term, which expires Dec. 31, 2003.
