Boerne school, council races draw challengers

Boerne City Council and Boerne Independent School District will have full slates of candidates for voters to choose from in the May 5 election.

All three Boerne ISD positions will feature contested races, but with only one incumbent vying to return. All three Boerne City Council incumbents will also face challengers. 

In Fair Oaks Ranch, Mayor Greg Maxton and Place 1 Councilwoman Emily Stroup drew no opposition.  in their bids for re-election. An election will still be held, however, as Ranch voters have two propositions to weigh in on: Whether to reauthorize local sales and use taxes to fund the city’s street maintenance program; and for the issuance of $16 million in general obligation bonds for road reconstruction projects.
