    Each of the links provided in this comment should take the reader to the list of 10 candidates (five in the first link for Feb.28, and five in the second link for Mar.1) applying for the vacated Lakewood City Council Position Six, along with the candidate’s references, educational experience, and reasons for wanting to serve.

    During each candidate’s fifteen minute interview they will be asked to respond to the following:

    1. What skills, talent or diversity do they bring to the City Council.

    2. How the aforementioned attributes would help them be an effective Councilmember on Day 1.

    3. What top three priorities they believe the City Council should focus on in 2023; and

    4. Why then, why now?

  2. This is great news! It’s so important to have an enthusiasm and a commitment to serve in any elected position. The Lakewood City Council is doing an important job to ensure that the right person is chosen to fill the position 6 vacancy. I look forward to hearing who they decide to hire!
