STPUD candidates to square off

South Tahoe Public Utility District is organizing a board candidate forum for Oct. 8 at 6pm in the district board room.

The forum is open to the public and is an opportunity for the community to come and hear statements from each of the five candidates running for a seat in November.

Chris Cefalu is running unopposed. Andy Chapman and Duane Wallace are vying for the same seat; and Jim Jones and Shane Romsos are after the same seat.

Each candidate will be allowed three minutes to give an opening statement, answer questions posed by the audience and then provide a two minute closing statement.

The district is located at 1275 Meadow Crest Drive, South Lake Tahoe.
