ST. CLAIR SHORES Thirteen residents have thrown their hat into the ring to be considered for one of three spots on City Council up for grabs in November.
Although there have been primary elections for City Council races in the past, City Clerk Mary Kotowski said there is a lot of interest in the election this year.
“I don’t remember, in my 22 years, having this many candidates,” she said.
A primary election is triggered for the City Council election if more than double the amount of candidates to be elected file to run. The top six vote getters from the Aug. 3 primary election will move onto the November general election, when the top three candidates will be elected to serve a four-year term on City Council.
