City Hall prepped for Wharton arrival

City Hall staff and members of mayor-elect AC Wharton's team are putting the finishing touches on the Hall of Mayors at City Hall.

Wharton, who won a landslide victory in the Oct. 15 special election, has resigned as mayor of Shelby County and will be sworn in as mayor of Memphis at Noon.

Workers are now finalizing the set-up in the Hall of Mayors and arranging the podium and microphone for Wharton.
