STOEBERL WILL NOT SEEK RE-ELECTION

Alderman Gib Stoeberl turned in a "Notification of Noncandidacy" form Friday morning, meaning he won't be a candidate for Council from District 3 this coming April. As a former student of Gib's, I have known him for many years, and his wisdom, patience and leadership will be missed on the Council. I know that he wanted to see the Boca Grande agreement and the building of a new fire station come to pass, and he was able to see both.

CANDIDATES
* Jeremy Custer, a Ripon College student, filed his completed Campaign Registration Statement and Declaration for Candidacy for the office of Mayor.
* Up for re-election in April: myself, Deano Pape, Joel Brockman, and Al Schraeder. None of us have made a formal announcement or decision.
