Nomination deadlines if you want to run against Kati Moulton or Scott Bauer for Eureka City Council

(Moulton)

(Bauer)

City of Eureka Assistant Manager and Clerk Pam Powell just sent out election information about Ward 2 and 4. I checked and no one has submitted a 501 FPPC form yet. After the nomination period, Ms. Powell can release information and confirm.

Kati Moulton is the current Councilmeber for Ward 2. Scott Bauer is the current Councilmeber for Ward 4.

7/16: I checked with Ms. Powell and no one had submitted any paperwork. 7/18: Checked again, no one had pulled paperwork except for Councilmember Moulton. Since she posted on Facebook, Ms. Powell was able to confirm.
