Macon names interim city administrator

COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)

Mary Lou Craig has been named Macon’s interim city administrator, the city announced in a Wednesday social media post.

Craig replaces Scott Meszaros, who was fired last week after only working since March 1.

The post says Craig has worked for the city as either the city clerk or assistant city administrator since 2014 and was previously the city clerk in Shelbina for 12 years.

The City Council will begin advertising for the position and taking applications immediately, the post says.

“Mrs. Craig has effectively served as the Assistant City Administrator and we feel very confident in her ability to step in as the Interim as we navigate the future for administrative roles at City Hall,” Mayor Tony Petre was quoted in the release.
