Four MFAD board seats open in November election
MFAD is holding a general election for four of five seats on the Minter Field Airport District board. Kirk Nelson says the November vote is important for the district and cheaper due to reduced printing costs. Rex Tudor seeks reelection to the seat he was appointed after Robert Diltz's death. Jack Thompson, first elected in 1989, is not up for re election. Current directors are John Putman, Dana Mulder, Jim Albright, and Thompson. The board governs the 1235 acre district.
