Three Village Trustee Seats Up in April
Please vote!
Park Forest, IL-(ENEWSPF)- Three Village Trustee seats and five Library Trustee positions are up for grabs in the April 6, 2021 election. Elections in Park Forest are non-partisan. In the next few months, eNews Park Forest will explore what non-partisan elections mean for Village residents. At this point, readers should be aware that a non-partisan system of elections eliminates a primary system in town allowing more people to run for office for very little money.
“The NPC (Non-Partisan Committee) serves Park Forest by hosting public forums and elicits Candidate Statements to make it more convenient for any qualified Park Forest resident to run for public office,” Elissa Seeman, Secretary of the Park Forest Non-Partisan Committee tells ENEWSPF. “We provide opportunities for candidates to meet the public.”
Our biannual reorganization will be held on January 13th at 7 pm. Elected PCOs will now turn to elect a Chair, 1st and 2nd Vice Chairs, two State Committeemembers, as well as King County Democrats Representatives and alternates. All members present will vote for a Treasurer and Secretary. This meeting will be led by representatives from the King County Democrats. The agenda for this meeting will be released when it is provided. The call for this meeting will be sent by the King County Democrats and will include the registration link.
Declared candidates for these roles are:
Chair – Carla Rogers
2nd Vice Chair – Jordan Crawley
