Lewes City Council Election to Take Place on May 9th, but Lewes BPW Election is Canceled

There will be an election on May 9^th to elect two candidates to the Lewes City Council. The filing deadline was last Thursday and city officials tell the Talk of Delmarva that three candidates have filed. Incumbents Joe Elder and Timothy Ritzert are challenged by Kevin Keane. The City Council will confirm the election and candidates at their April 13^th meeting.

There will be NO election for the Lewes Board of Public Works on May 9^th. Only the two incumbents filed for the two open seats, so Preston Lee and Barbara Curtis will remain on the Board.
