Six candidates running for Holtville City Council
HOLTVILLE, Calif. (KYMA, KECY) - There are a couple more candidates running for the Holtville City Council.
Stacy Britschigi is running for the second time. She is the owner of a daycare and is the president of the Holtville football and cheer committee.
Bryan Vega is the youngest candidate. He was raised in holtville and is currently going to school for his masters degree in political science.
Both candidates explain what inspired them to run.
"We need more places for the kids to hang out at...things to do...We need the town to grow but not grow too big. We still love our small town fill of Holtville but we do need to improve...You know, the housing situation we need to increase for our future," said Britschigi.
"It's time to create change where my community is and so we grew up thinking the grass is greener in somewhere else, but I think the grass is greener where you water it. So, I am here to water the garden in my community and hope that we plant seeds that would blossom for generations to come and create opportunities and sustainabilities," said Vega.
We reached out to candidate Michael Pacheco, who's is running for re-election, and we're waiting to hear back.
