JUST A REMINDER

 THE APRIL 7^TH  MUNICIPAL  ELECTION

WAS POSTPONED UNTIL JUNE 2^ND

This year’s election will be different than any other has been.  Given the growing concern surrounding COVID-19 and the large number of people elections attract, Governor Parsons stated that postponing Missouri’s municipal elections is a necessary step to help combat the spread of the virus and protect the health and safety of Missouri voters.

Pursuant to Governor Mike Parson’s Executive Order 20-02 declaring a state of emergency in response to COVID-19 and a request from Secretary of State Jay Ashcroft, on March 18, 2020 Governor Parson signed Executive Order 20-03 ordering all Missouri municipal elections previously scheduled for April 7, 2020, to be postponed to June 2, 2020.

Due to the postponement of the April 7^th election, all current Council members will remain seated until after the June 2^nd election.

Ward I Councilman, Mark Stief will not be seeking re-election this year.  Beverly Bates was the only candidate that filed for the Ward I seat.  Ward II Councilman Curt Pierce re-filed for the position and is unopposed.

     So be sure to watch the mail for your June ballot information.
