Candidates filing for November election

Candidates are slowly qualifying for the Nov. 4 ballot.

The filing period closes Aug. 8. It will be extended to Aug. 13 if an incumbent does not file or qualify.

New for Lake Tahoe Unified School District and Lake Tahoe Community College is that the five members now represent specific districts. That means people will only vote for one person for each of those entities.

Wendy David is the only South Lake Tahoe City Council candidate who has qualified for the ballot. Those who have taken out papers are Brooke Laine, Tom Davis, Angela Swanson, Bruce Grego, Austin Sass and Matt Palacio.

Dave Olivio has qualified for the ballot for city treasurer.

Suzie Alessi has taken out papers for city clerk.

Kerry David has qualified for District 1 for the LTCC board, Jeff Cowen for District 2, and Bob Grant and Michelle Sweeney for District 5.

LTUSD District 5 has Barbara Bannar on the ballot. No one has filed for area 2.

Chris Cefalu has qualified for director seat one for South Tahoe Public Utility District, Jim Jones for seat two, and Duane Wallace for seat five.
