| Description | Hugh Hallman won’t face any opposition as he seeks a second term at Tempe’s mayor, though seven candidates will fight for three City Council seats.
Incumbents Mark Mitchell and Hut Hutson are seeking re-election, but Barb Carter isn’t seeking a third term.
The current councilmen will face challengers Corey Woods, Julie Jakubek, Joel Navarro, Rhett Wilson and Darryl Jacobson-Barnes. The candidates filed their campaign paperwork Wednesday, the deadline to submit signatures for the March 11 primary election and May 20 general election.
Several candidates said one of the hottest issues is the city’s vote earlier this year to keep the current property tax rate, which will raise taxes given the surge in property values. Hutson and Hallman wanted a lower tax rate, while Mitchell voted to keep it the same. |
