ELBURN – Two candidates are vying for one four-year term trustee seat on the Elburn and Countryside fire protection district board in the April 9 election.

James Childress believes his experience working for the city of Geneva as an Illinois EPA Public Drinking Water Supply Operator would be beneficial to the board.

“Working for a municipality, I feel that I have a good understanding of certain policies and procedures for a government body so that I can add input to the board to assist in decision making,” Childress said.
