LAKEPORT, Calif. – The three candidates seeking seats on the Lakeport City Council in November's general election will participate in a forum on Thursday, Oct. 16.
The forum, hosted by Lake County News and the Lake County Chamber of Commerce, will take place from 6 to 7 p.m. in the council chambers at Lakeport City Hall, 225 Park St.
Two seats on the council – currently held by Tom Engstrom and Stacey Mattina – are up for election on Nov. 4. Engstrom announced earlier this year that he would not seek reelection.
Mattina is seeking a second term, and Robert Balentine and Mireya Gehring Turner also are running to serve on the council.
Community members are invited to attend.
