The Jefferson City Council set Tuesday, April 9, 2024, as the date for the municipal election.
Council Member J. Lokhorst moved that, should a municipal election be necessary, it be conducted in conjunction with the Elk Point‑Jefferson school board election; the motion was seconded by J. Van Beest and carried. The minutes do not list specific ballot items, candidates, or whether the council anticipates a contested race.
The consolidation of election administration with the school board election can reduce administrative burden and voter confusion, the minutes note, but no additional procedural details or inter‑jurisdictional agreements were recorded at the Jan. 4 meeting.
