Moffat withdraws from Geneva School Board race

GENEVA – Geneva resident Jay Moffat has withdrawn from the Geneva School District 304 Board race, but he's still in races for the Geneva Park District and Geneva Public Library District.



Moffat had filed to run in the three races, but he decided Thursday to withdraw from the school board race after getting an opinion from the Illinois Attorney General's office saying that serving on both the school and park boards would be incompatible because of overlapping interests.



He said the decision to withdraw from the school board race was "tremendously difficult," but he decided to give up that race because it leaves a total of eight candidates running for four open seats.
