The filing period is underway for positions that will be voted on in the City of Oakland General Election on November 8th.

City Recorder Carolyn Shields said all filing requirements must be completed by 5:00 p.m. on August 30th.

A two-year term as Mayor is up for election. That seat is currently held by Tom Hasvold. Four-year terms for councilor positions #1 and #3 will be voted on as well. Those are held by councilors Janice Wier and Victoria Kietzman, respectfully. Council positions are elected at-large – meaning candidates can live in any area within the Oakland city limits. Terms will begin in January of 2023.
