Two Whitefish city councilors have joined the mayor in filing for re-election.
Councilors Frank Sweeney and Richard Hildner both filed last week to campaign for another term. Mayor John Muhlfeld announced his re-election campaign earlier this month.
Three council seats and the mayor’s position are up for election this year
Councilor John Anderson’s term also expires at the end of the year.
The filing period for candidates opened May 4 and closes July 2.
Hildner was first elected to council in 2011.
Sweeney was appointed to the council in 2009 before later losing his bid for re-election. He successfully earned a seat on council in the 2011 election.
Muhlfeld was first elected mayor in November 2011 when he defeated Turner Askew in the general election. He was appointed to city council in 2006 to fill a two-year vacancy and was elected in 2007 to a four-year term.
