Tune in for live coverage of tonight's Elmbrook candidate forum
Candidates running for Elmbrook School Board will square off at a forum tonight, and we'll be delivering as-it-happens coverage throughout the evening.
The action is set to begin at 7 p.m. in the board room at Elmbrook's Central Administrative Office, 13780 Hope St., Brookfield. Candidates for the board's Area II seat - incumbent Glen Allgaier and Ilse Frayer - will join candidates for the two at-large seats - Beth Horneffer, Sandra Schultz, Kathryn Wilson and incumbent Bob Ziegler - in a two-hour discussion about the issues facing Elmbrook.
We'll start blogging shortly before 7 p.m. and if you'd like, you can sign up now to receive an e-mail alert just before we get under way.
On April 6, district voters will head to the polls to cast three votes, one for each of the three open seats.
Allgaier and Frayer will face off for a full term in the Area II seat.
The top vote-getter among Horneffer, Schultz, Wilson and Ziegler will be elected to a three-year at-large term, while the candidate with the second-highest number of votes will be elected to a one-year term, serving the remainder of the term vacated by David Marcello.
Board members are paid $3,600 per year.
At-large candidates may live anywhere within the district. Only residents living in Area II, roughly the district's northwest quadrant, are eligible to run for the Area II seat. All voters can vote for all seats.
