Three more candidates have begun gathering signatures in this year’s race for Paradise Valley Town Council.
Planning Commissioner Jerald Bien-Willner, along with residents Brad Forst, an organizer supporting neighbors against Camelback Inn’s newest golf course; and Mark Stanton, deputy director of the Arizona Office of Tourism, have filed their Statement of Organization forms, allowing them to gather signatures for their candidacy.
The Mayor’s Office and five of the six other Town Council seats are open in the Aug. 26 election this year. If needed, a runoff election will be conducted Nov. 4. Winners will be sworn in Jan. 8.
