Only one candidate has filed petitions with the Clintonville Area Commission in each of the three districts set to elect commission representatives in 2021.
Incumbents Brittany Boulton in District 5 and Michael Weinman in District 7 are seeking reelection.
Hugh Crowell will run in District 4, where commissioner Judy Minister had announced she will not seek reelection.
“The CAC has been looking for candidates all along and write-in candidates are welcome,” said Ann Henkener, election committee chair. “The deadline for submitting a candidate packet for write-in candidates is (April 2).”
Henkener added that the three candidate packets returned were the only ones picked up, and that all three races will be uncontested unless write-in candidates are received by April 2.

Residents in three Clintonville Area Commission districts will elect representatives this year.
The CAC approved its election committee’s recommended timeline at its Feb. 4 meeting, starting with the availability of candidate petitions at the Whetstone branch of the Columbus Metropolitan Library beginning Feb. 20.
Individuals residing in districts 4, 5 and 7 who are interested in running should pick up packets, which include information on the CAC, commissioner responsibilities and election information, said Ann Henkener, committee chair.
“A great way of getting voter participation is to have engaging candidates,” Henkener said. “So we are trying to make sure potential candidates know about the openings and that we continue to get great candidates.”

The city of Columbus has designs on filling the gap in the Olentangy Trail.
Construction on a new section of trail to close the gap will require cyclists and other users to exit the dedicated trail and traverse several blocks of neighborhood streets through Clintonville. Although the project likely won’t begin until 2023, residents have a chance to view the options for the final piece of the regional trail.
The city will present design options and solicit resident and user input in a public meeting scheduled for 6 p.m. Jan. 21, to be held via Zoom. A link to register for the meeting is available at the Clintonville Area Commission website, clintonvilleareacommission.org.
