Election Update for the City of Garretson and the Garretson School District:

Date:

            There will be only one local election for the 2024 Election cycle of the Garretson School Board and the Garretson City Council. The City of Garretson will have an election for a Ward 2 councilor seat.

            Bruce Brown has filed unopposed for mayor, so he will be the next mayor of Garretson. No candidates, including both incumbents Bill Hoskins and Greg Franka filed for Ward 1, so those seats will need to be appointed later by the council.

            In Ward two, there will be an election between incumbent Dave Bonte and challenger Leslie Black.

            For the Garretson School Board, two at large positions were up for election, the seats held by Jodi Gloe and Andy Hulscher. However, neither incumbent filed petitions for their re-election. Two others, Natasha Mendoza and Justin VanDeBerg have both filed petitions for election, and since there are two open seats and no other competitors they will both win their seats unopposed.
