Hamilton Mayor Jim McInnis passed away Oct. 25 unexpectedly after a brief illness. City Administrator, Ryan Polster, said “Jim’s passing is a great loss to the City.” He went on to say, “Jim was someone who made you want to spend more time listening than talking. He treated people the way everyone would want to be treated. And he never took someone else’s time for granted.” McInnis was running for re-election and if re-elected on Nov. 3, the mayoral seat could remain open until the city council appoints a new mayor. J. Springer Courtney is also running for mayor.
