Emporia City Commission incumbent Danny Giefer has filed for re-election.
Going for his third term in office, Giefer tells KVOE News he brings a nonpartisan viewpoint to the board.
Giefer says the city is headed in a good direction but still has a number of notable items to address, including increasing the available housing stock, adding jobs and improving infrastructure.
