  Former County Councilman Bill Vaughan Passes at 70 File photo web posted March 12, 2013  EDGEFIELD – Former Edgefield
County
Councilman William "Bill" Vaughan died at University Hospital in
Augusta, Ga., on Sunday. He was elected to the County Council in
November of 2000 following a citizen revolt against county zoning in
which two of three seats targeted by the group were taken. Vaughan was
also a Navy veteran and retired from Aiken Electric Cooperative after
33 years of service."The news came as a shock," Edgefield Daily founder Roy Blackwell said. "Bill was an active leader in the Concerned Citizens of Edgefield County (CCEC) starting in 1998 and continued to support private property rights even after elected." Vaughan served a single term as the representative for the Westside District (Dist.2). "Bill was the watchdog of the county council," Blackwell said. "He was a good friend and a selfless public servant. He will be greatly missed." Funeral services will be held today, Tuesday, March 12, at 2:00 P.M. at Edgefield Mercantile Funeral Home with burial at Sunset Gardens Memorial Park.
