From the meeting
At its October 12, 2026 meeting, the council authorized the city clerk to conduct a special general election after the October 6 municipal election left one seat vacant because the winning candidate was found ineligible under term-limit rules. The resolution directs staff to set the schedule, publish notices, accept filings, prepare ballots, and arrange polling and canvassing. The work is already moving into election administration, so any election support, printing, or logistics vendor has a clear near-term opening.
