Incumbent Smithville Council Member Bill Gordon has drawn a challenger in Charles Diltz for the Place 3 seat, and Betty McBryar and Tom Etheredge are vying for the open Place 2 seat.
The Place 2 and 3 competitions are among four contested City Council races in the May 1 election, which includes a race for mayor between incumbent Joanna Morgan and challenger Jerry Callaghan, and a race between Stan Gerdes and Danielle Washington Tenorio for the open Place 4 seat.
Place 1 Council Member Sharon Foerster is running for reelection unopposed.
In a candidate forum hosted by the Smithville Chamber of Commerce on April 13, the candidates laid out their priorities and vision for the city.
