(WKYT) – London City Attorney Larry Bryson is retiring after more than 40 years in the position.
Bryson made the announcement at the end of Monday’s city council meeting.
“I’ve been practicing the law since 1977 in Kentucky. It’s now time for me to bring in my [shingle] and enjoy life away from the legal profession,” Bryson said.
Bryson said medical and health issues were also a factor in his decision.
Last year he was fired during the impeachment saga when Tracie Handley was the acting mayor. But Randall Weddle rehired Bryson after he was reinstated as the city’s mayor.
Weddle put out a statement Monday thanking Bryson for his years of work and wishing him the best in retirement.
