With Four Days Left, Only One Person Has Filed To Run For Bethel City Council

The deadline to file as a candidate for the Bethel City Council election is this Monday, August 22 at 12:00 p.m.

Three council seats sit open, and so far only one person has filed for candidacy: Mary Weiss, who already serves on council after taking Chuck Herman’s spot following his resignation earlier this year.

Council members serve two-year terms. Byron Maczynski and Zach Fansler’s terms are ending this year, and neither of them have filed for re-election. This week Fansler won the House District 38 Democratic Primary, and with no competitor, he’s expected to win the general election.

Bethel City Council elections are October 4.

Anna Rose MacArthur served as KYUK's News Director from 2015-2022.
