Longmont Ward 1 Special Election: Candidate Forum

More than 18,400 eastern Longmont voters can cast their ballot this month in the special election to fill the vacant Ward 1 seat on the City Council.

Mayor Brian Bagley represented Ward 1 on City Council up until his election as mayor in November 2017.

Three candidates are on the ballot: Josh Goldberg, the community and events manager for Left Hand Brewing Co.; Russ Lyman, a senior network engineer for CenturyLink, and retired educator Tim Waters.

Two of the three candidates, Goldberg and Waters, participated in a candidate forum on sustainability issues hosted by Sustainable Resilient Longmont, Eco-Cycle and the Longmont Observer.

The forum happened on Thursday, February 8th 6:30-8:30 p.m. and was moderated by KGNU’s Liz Lane.
