Mark Schaeffer was also sworn in to the 3rd District seat, replacing one-term Councilman I.G. Burton III. 

Returning Councilman Mike Vincent and Sussex County Clerk of the Peace Norman “Jay” Jones, also took their oaths of office to begin new four-year terms. 

Councilman Vincent was elected to another year as Council president and Councilman John Rieley was elected as vice president. 

The Council also re-appointed J. Everett Moore as County Attorney.
