Ryan Shell is already making plans for how he will spend his City Council salary if he gets elected this November.
He says $5,000 of it will be spent on five annual scholarships for young people in District 2. Shell filed paperwork to run in the district on Thursday. He will challenge Gordon Hester and Jim Kee for the seat.
Shell said he worked while he attended UNCG and knows first hand how difficult it is to pay for college.
“It was just way to give back directly to those kids,” he said.
