Candidate filing closed Tuesday for a number of governmental positions that are up for election April 6, setting up several competitive races across South County.

A proposal for tax incentives at the Helen Fitzgerald’s and Comfort Suites hotel property in Sunset Hills has been scrapped for now. If the developers bring it back, they will have to start over.
