City elections are coming up for Bonners Ferry
in about two months.
Set for Tuesday, November 3, this election will
determine the mayor of Bonners Ferry, and will
fill three of the four City Council positions.
Last Friday was the final day to file to run for
office in the Bonners Ferry city elections.
Current Bonners Ferry Mayor David Anderson is
seeking re-election. Also filing to run for
mayor is David Sims, who currently serves as the
Boundary County Economic Development
Coordinator.
On the City Council, three positions are up for
election. These include two four-year City
Council seats currently held by Connie Wells and
Rick Alonzo, and a two-year seat now held by
Adam Arthur.
Ms. Wells and Mr. Alonzo, who currently hold the
Council's four-year seats, will be running for
re-election to those Council seats. Merle
Dinning has also filed to run for a four-year
Council seat.
In the election, those two seats will go to the
two candidates who receive the two highest vote
totals.
Adam Arthur is the only candidate who filed for
the two-year Council seat he currently holds, so
he is running unopposed for that seat, unless a
write-in candidate files. According to Kris
Larson, City Clerk, any write-in candidate has
until 5:00 p.m. on October 6 to file for the
election. |
