Former Washington Street Commissioner Ernie Evans has filed to run for city council.
Evans will be running for City Council At-Large in the May 2019 Primary Municipal Election. There are two At-Large seats on the council currently held by Democrat Blake Chambers and Republican David Dahl. Evans is running as a Democrat.
Evans retired from the street department last year. He spent 20 years in the department, 10 as commissioner.
He says he’ll be a good steward of taxpayer money having gained experience in his years working for the city.
