3 aldermanic races on Clintonville ballot

Three Clintonville Common Council seats will be decided in the April 7 spring election. Former Mayor Robert Gay has filed papers as a candidate for alderman in District 1. He will face opposition from newcomer Julie Stumbris. Alderman Bill Zeinert decided not to seek re-election. In District 3, incumbent Amy Steenbock, who was appointed to the position when Jerry Jorgenson resigned, will face opposition from Steve Kettenhoven, a former alderman. In District 5, where incumbent Mark Doornink filed noncandidacy papers, newcomers Maggie Hintz-Polzin and Brad Rokus have filed papers. In District 4, Lois Bressette, who defeated former Alderman Greg Rose in a recall election in November, will run unopposed. No one has filed as a candidate in District 2, where incumbent Phil Rath filed a declaration of noncandidacy. The deadline to file nomination papers to get on the April ballot was 5 p.m. Tuesday. Council members who are not up for re-election this year are Jim Krause, District 1; Gloria Dunlavy, District 2; John Wilson, District 3; Mary Beth Kuester, District 4; and Jeannie Schley, District 5.
