LAKE COUNTY – The city clerks of Clearlake and Lakeport have announced that nomination papers are now available for those wishing to seek seats on the county's two city councils.
On the Nov. 4 ballot, municipal elections will take place in both Clearlake and Lakeport, with three seats on each council being up for election, according to Clearlake City Clerk Melissa Swanson and Lakeport City Clerk Janel Chapman.
In Clearlake, the seats currently held by Mayor Curt Giambruno and Council members Joyce Overton and Judy Thein will be on the ballot, while in Lakeport the seats held by Lakeport Mayor Willis “Buzz” Bruns, and Council members Roy Parmentier and Bob Rumfelt will be filled in the election.
In order to run for the four-year council terms, Swanson and Chapman said candidates much be registered voters who live in the city where they're seeking election, be at least 18 years of age and hold US citizenship.
Nomination papers for Clearlake City Council candidates are available at Clearlake City Hall, 14050 Olympic Drive, Clearlake, through Aug. 8. All nomination papers must be returned on that date by 5 p.m.
In Lakeport, the deadline to file nomination papers for the council seats also is Friday, Aug. 8 at 5 p.m. Each candidate must be nominated by not less than 20 nor more than 30 registered voters; it's therefore recommended that anyone interested should pick up their nomination papers well in advance of the filing deadline to allow time to gather signatures.
