While three people signed up to run for seats on the
Mona City Council, not enough candidates filed to fill all
four eligible seats.
"If no one registers," said Bryce Lynn, mayor, "I will
just have to appoint someone to the council in January."
Rory Neilson, recently appointed to the council to
fill the vacant seat left when Rick Schnurr resigned, is
seeking a four-year term.
Cory Squire, current member of the council, is also
running for election as a four-year council member.
Quentin Kay has registered to run for a two-year term
on the council.
No one has signed up for the fourth seat.
A person cannot be elected to the council as a
write-in candidate unless they have previously registered to
run as a write-in candidate. Even if a large number of
people vote for an individual, that person cannot be
officially elected without first registering.
"All those wanting to run for a council seat have
until Oct. 19 to register as write-in candidates," said Lyla
Spencer, city recorder.
