Three
seats on the
Del Mar City
Council will be up for
the voters to
make a choice
in November. Prospective
council members
will declare their
candidacies by
early August.
This will be the
first in a series
to track candidates
and campaign activities
between now and
November.
In
recent weeks several
names of prospective
candidates have
been surfacing
around the community.
Incumbent Carl
Hilliard has made
it very explicit
that he will be
running for re-election
to a second term.
Incumbent three-term
councilmembers
Dave Druker and
Henry Abarbanel
have been very
clear that they
do not plan to
run for reelection.
Planning Commission
member Mark Filanc
has stated explicitly
that he plans
to run for one
of the seats.
Design Review
Board member Don
Mosier has stated
explicitly that
he plans to run
for one of the
seats.
Other
names have appeared
in rumors and
discussions around
town: Wayne Dernetz;
Sherryl Parks
; and Sam Borgese.
In response to
inquiries from
the Sandpiper,
none of them indicated
a willingness
to declare.
We
invite readers
to pass on to
us any credible
rumors or behavioral
indicators of
prospective candidacies
for future issues
of the Sandpiper.
