Throughout the majority of the the Geneva Lake West area voters will see not only familiar faces, but some new names as well, on the ballot for the upcoming spring election.
The Village of Sharon is the most likely to see new faces on its Village board. Incumbent Pamela Schutt has filed paperwork with the intention of re-running for her elected seat. Also running in the spring election will be Carl Fritz and Robert Carlson. Incumbent Daniel Rambatt filed papers for non-candidacy, indicating he will not be running for re-election and the seat of Robert Sachs, who resigned late last year, still remains open.
In the Village of Walworth, Village Trustees Kent Johnson, LeRoy Nordmeyer and Ed Snyder, IV, have all filed paperwork with the intention of running for re-election to their seats. In addition, Randy Maynard will join their names on the April Ballot.
In the Village of Fontana, Village Trustees Rick Pappas, David Prudden and George Spadoni have all filed paperwork indicating their intent to run again. Likewise, in Fontana, the incumbents will be vying for their seats against Stan Livingston, who has filed nomination papers and a declaration of candidacy.
In the Village of Williams Bay, all three incumbents, Jim Killian, David Jameson and Gregory Trush, have filed candidacy papers for re-election. No one else has filed papers with the clerk.
Additionally, in the villages of Sharon and Fontana the seat of the municipal judge will be up for election, held by Denise Gibbons in Sharon and David Jensen in Fontana. The term is four years. Both have filed paperwork indicating their intention to run for re-election and are running unopposed in their respective communities.
