PITTSFIELD, Mass. Councilor at Large Earl Persip III has announced he will be running for his third two-year term. I wanted to re-run because It comes down to one thing, he said last week. I believe in Pittsfield, and I believe we re moving in a positive direction. And I want to keep that momentum. And I want to be part of that momentum. And I want to be a voice in how we move forward. The councilor s announcement come after the decisions of three of his colleagues not to run: Ward 2 Councilor Kevin Morandi, Ward 4 Councilor Chris Connell, and Ward 3 Councilor Nicholas Caccamo announced early this year that they would not seek re-election.
