Spring City Names New Interim Mayor

SPRING CITY, PA — Spring City's borough council has selected Adam Alberico, a patient advocate and volunteer firefighter, as the town's new interim mayor.

Former mayor Michael Weiss, who served four terms as mayor between 2006 and 2025, submitted his resignation earlier this month, sparking a weeks-long search.

"I am truly honored to share that I have been appointed interim mayor of Spring City tonight," Alberico said in a statement. "This is a humbling experience, and I want to express my gratitude to the Spring City Council members and all my supporters who came out to support me. It was a privilege to have Former Mayor Kern in attendance as well."

The borough has been collecting resumes and candidates for weeks, and had previously set a deadline for applications of April 21.

Alberico had gained a large Facebook following after publicly throwing his name in the ring for the open post.

"A special thank you to my wife, friends and family for their unwavering support," Alberico added. "I look forward to working for you all to improve Spring City and enhance our wonderful community!"

Voters will head to the polls this November to decide the next mayor. Alberico will serve the remainder of Weiss's term, through Jan. 5, 2026.
