City Council prepares to adjust executive assistant role following Eve Breedlove's departure

The London City Council meeting on April 3, 2025, highlighted a significant transition within the city administration as Executive Assistant Eve Breedlove announced her departure, effective July. Council members expressed their gratitude for her contributions, which included doubling revenue for Parks and Recreation, launching a new city website and app, and enhancing community engagement through various events.

Mayor Pat acknowledged Breedlove's impact, stating, "Eve has done so much since she's been here... she really came to London and became a presence in our city." Her efforts in digitalizing city forms and improving social media outreach were particularly noted as vital to enhancing communication with residents.

In light of her departure, the council plans to revise the executive assistant job description to better reflect the role's evolving responsibilities, particularly in social media and marketing. Mayor Pat emphasized the importance of finding a successor who can continue Breedlove's legacy, aiming for a smooth transition with an overlap period for training.

The meeting also included routine updates, with no public hearings or audience concerns raised. Upcoming committee meetings were scheduled, including finance and public safety discussions. The council's focus remains on maintaining effective governance and community engagement as they navigate this administrative change.
