8:08 PM With six months before the casting of ballots, City Council races have already begun and a host of candidates have tossed their names up for consideration. While most eyes focus on the mayoral race between incumbent Alan Webber and Councilor JoAnne Vigil Coppler from District 4, the four council districts could all see some competition in the coming months. The first official glimpse into the municipal election opened Monday, May 3, when individuals could collect candidate packets. The race in District 1 has seen the most interest so far, with four packets collected. Both Councilor Sig Lindell and Joe Hoback, whose family owned the Pink Adobe restaurant and who is the former president of Land of Enchantment Federal Credit Union, made formal announcements of their candidacy.
