NILES — Dan Polivka, the Trumbull County Democratic Party chairman, has accepted the resignation of Barry Steffey from the position of president of Niles City Council.

Steffey ran unopposed in the Democratic primary in Niles for re-election to the position. No Republicans or independent candidates filed for the seat for the November ballot.

City residents who have an interest in replacing Steffey for not only his current term, which ends Dec. 31, but also to have their name on the November general election ballot as the Democratic nominee should submit letters of interest to the Trumbull County Democratic Party Secretary, 7810 Castlerock Drive NE, Warren, OH 44484 by Friday.
