Saying he is “excited to continue working hard for the community,” Mayor Travis Mitchell has filed the necessary documents with the City Secretary’s office to run for re-election to a second, three-year term.
“The last three years have been about galvanizing behind a vision of Kyle — pride in our community, investment in quality of life initiatives, and a focus on excellence in all things,” Mitchell told The Kyle Report in a written statement. “The budget we are working on reflects just how far we have come and what our priorities are as a council. I’m excited to continue working hard for the community to bring that vision into a reality.”
The filing was in sharp contrast to the events Mitchell staged when he first ran for council five years ago and then for mayor in 2017. This more low-key approach is perhaps fitting in times of a pandemic. In his application, he named himself as his campaign treasurer.
Mitchell joins Tim McHutchion, who is seeking the same Place 4 Council seat he unsuccessfully sought three years ago, as the only candidates who have filed for a council position to date.
The deadline for filing is still more than two weeks away (Aug. 17).
