Incumbents running unopposed in election

Mayor Penny Lilburn and Councilman John Timmer are running unopposed in the Nov. 4 election.

As of the close of the nomination period on Aug. 8, Lilburn and Timmer were the only two who filed papers.

The City Council will hold a special meeting at  5 p.m. on Aug. 20 to decide whether to direct an election to be held on Nov. 4 or appoint Lilburn and Timmer to take office and serve exactly as if elected at a municipal election.
