Summary

Officials said no opposing candidates filed for the available council positions, so a scheduled March 10 special election is unnecessary and the qualified candidates will assume the council seats.

At the Feb. 5 meeting the council was informed that no opposing candidates had filed for available council positions, meaning the previously announced March 10 special election is no longer required. The minutes list the qualified candidates expected to assume seats without an election: Ray Nyhuis (Mayor), Jeff Grenell, Arnold Aliff, William Daugherty, Dana Merrill Jr., and Patrick Kaufman.

The minutes state that the Supervisor of Elections will not be notified to proceed with a special election because the seats are uncontested. Newly elected or newly assumed officials are still responsible for completing required training and other onboarding duties.
