| (IMPERIAL VOTERS WILL NOT CHOOSE NEW CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS)…THE CURRENT CITY COUNCIL DECIDED TO FOREGO THE ELECTION IN NOVEMBER, AND APPOINT THE 3 PEOPLE WHO FILED CANDIDACY PAPERS. THERE WERE 3 VACANCIES ON THE COUNCIL. INCUMBENTS BETTY SAMPSON AND GEOFF DALE HAD FILED FOR RE-ELECTION. RICKY BRELAND WAS THE NEW NAME THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN ON THE BALLOT. THE THIRD INCUMBENT, TOM MAZEROLL, HAD DECIDED NOT TO SEEK RE-ELECTION. MAZEROLL WILL LEAVE THE COUNCIL AFTER SERVING TEN YEARS. THE ELECTION CODE ALLOWS A CITY COUNCIL A CHOICE NOT TO HOLD ELECTIONS IN UNCONTESTED RACES. THE DECISION MUST BE MADE 75 DAYS BEFORE AN ELECTION. THE IMPERIAL CITY COUNCIL DECIDED TO SAVE THE CITY THE $6,000 ELECTION COSTS, SINCE THEIR WERE JUST 3 CANDIDATES FOR 3 SEATS. |
