Mayor Roy Avis reports he is doing well after undergoing back surgery on Feb. 14.
“I’m back at home and recovering,” he told the Times this morning.
“It’s just takes time. But everything’s going okay,” he added.
Mayor Avis said he had been on a waiting list to have the surgery for quite some time, and when he got the call that there was an opening, he had to take it.
The mayor has been away from council duties since Feb. 9, with deputy mayor Paul Ryan taking his seat in the meantime.
He expects to be back in the mayor’s chair closer to the end of March.
