BLYTHEWOOD ā Born and raised in Blythewood, Beverly Griffin Colley is now the new Blythewood Town Clerk. She was hired by Council Monday evening by a unanimous vote. Colley has worked the last nine years in the office of Congressman Joe Wilson in West Columbia.
“I was raised right down the street,” Colley told Council, “and Iām looking forward to coming back to work in my hometown and serving to the best of my ability.”
Colley, who still lives in Blythewood, replaces former Town Clerk Martha Weaver. Interim Town Administrator Jim Meggs told Council there were about 15 applicants for the Town Clerk position and that at least a dozen were interviewed. Colley will assume her duties at Town Hall in about two weeks.
