On March 18, City Administrator Brent Spier reacted to Gov. Greg Abbott's proclamation to allow political subdivisions to postpone spring elections by saying he did not believe Clear Lake Shores would do so. The community is small, and several council members are looking to get off the council and let others take their place, he said.
Nassau Bay has a special meeting March 21 where the council will likely vote to postpone its elections as well. Clear Creek ISD on March 18 said the election calendar had not changed at the time.
Three council seats are up for election in Clear Lake Shores: the seats of Angie Terrell, Amanda Fenwick and Mark Thompson. No incumbents are running for re-election, but six other residents are vying for the seats.
In Nassau Bay, three people are running unopposed for council seats, but four residents are running for mayor. In CCISD, five are running: three, including the incumbent, for Win Weber's seat, and two, including the incumbent, for Arturo Sanchez's chair.
