This is a breaking news story; more information to follow.
The Temple City Voice has learned that Temple City Mayor Pro Tempore Dave Capra may be forced to resign if his health continues makes him ineligible to serve.
Capra, first elected in 2003 and re-elected in 2007, is part of a three-person majority on the City Council. If Capra resigns, the City Council will appoint a Temple City resident and voter to fill Capra’s remaining term. His term ends in March 2011.
Anonymous sources have stated Capra is suffering damage from the brain. “It is not a simple stroke” claimed an unidentified individual.
