Mr. Skorman won his re-election in April of 2021 for his second term serving Council District 3. Due to unforeseen challenges from the pandemic, he made the difficult decision to leave to devote full-time to his business, working with his wife and business partner, Patricia Seator, to implement plans for full business recovery.
