With District 2 councilmember David Hayes’ resignation effective at the end of the month, the City of Sturgeon Bay will be seeking applications for the vacancy. District 2 serves a large section of Sturgeon Bay’s east side. People interested in applying for the council seat should send a brief statement about their background and interest in serving by October 8. Those candidates will appear and speak at the Sturgeon Bay Common Council meeting on October 20. The Council will then vote on the replacement at that meeting. Mayor David Ward was appointed to the Council prior to being elected Mayor back in 2016. He says it is important to fill the District 2 aldermanic position soon.
Candidates must reside in District 2 and be at least 18 years of age. The person appointed to fill Hayes’ seat will serve out the two-year term through April, 2022.
