GLADSTONE Six applicants vying for a single open Gladstone City Commission seat including a few familiar faces will have their chance to introduce themselves later this month.
The open seat on the commission was created by the resignation of Commissioner Darin Hunter, who left the city due to a change in employment that would have created a potential conflict of interest. Six people applied for the position by 4 p.m. on May 4, including Brian Godfrey, Diane Godfrey, Jason Leonard, Michael O’Connor, Robert Pontius, and Steven Viau.
All six applicants for the seat were in attendance at Monday’s regular city commission meeting, but the majority of commentary from the applicants themselves came from former commissioners O’Connor and Viau.

Milwaukie educator David Kays announces run against the board member who was arrested on prostitution charges.
A Milwaukie educator has announced a write-in campaign for the Clackamas Community College board of directors against unopposed incumbent Dave Hunt, who recently was arrested on prostitution charges.
The election is May 18.
David Kays, a 33-year educator, is a music instructor who has taught at Lincoln High School in Portland since 2015. Before that, he taught in the Gladstone School District for 15 years. I was filling out my own ballot Friday night and realized that I couldn t vote for the incumbent, given his current legal issues, Kays said. My family had a quick discussion and agreed to write me in. By the next morning, we agreed other people might like an alternative, too, and I would be happy to serve the CCC community for a four-year term. Now I m asking for others to write me in.
