Tognarelli has announced that he will be run for mayor, so at least one Council seat will not be contested by an incumbent.

Petitions can be filed beginning Nov. 17 and ending Nov. 24 at end of business or 5 p.m. central time. All final petitions must contain original sheets signed by voters and circulators. Questions can be directed to the Collinsville City Clerk’s office by calling 618-346-5204.
