Less than half an hour into Monday evening's Troy City Council meeting, Councilman Dane Slater was sworn in as Mayor Pro Tem and Acting Mayor of Troy.

Slater replaces Councilwoman Maureen McGinnis, who was sworn in Friday as acting Mayor of Troy following the Tuesday recall of former mayor Janice Daniels. The role of Mayor Pro Tem rotates to a new council member every November, and Slater will now serve until Council appoints a replacement to serve as mayor until the Nov. 5, 2013 city election.
