The Maricopa County Board of Supervisors is on the lookout for candidates interested in filling the soon-to-be-vacated position of Manistee Justice Precinct Constable. With Lennie McCloskey set to resign on December 31, the board is seeking a replacement to assume the responsibilities of the role which includes executing and serving legal documents, attending justice court sessions, and managing various other law enforcement tasks within the precinct that encompasses Glendale, Peoria, and parts of Supervisorial Districts 3, 4, and 5, as stated by the Maricopa County.

Prospective applicants must meet certain criteria before throwing their hats in the ring – they are required to be affiliated with the Republican Party, similar to the outgoing McCloskey, and must reside within the Manistee Justice Precinct in addition to being registered Arizona voters.
