Clearlake’s council candidates will be presented on Thursday and Friday. They include Bunnie Carter, Gina Fortino Dickson, Denise Loustalot, Charles O’Neill-Jones, Joyce Overton, Bruno Sabatier, Alvaro Valencia and Melinda Young.

Voters will find a picture of each candidate, as well as a rundown of personal information – name, age, family, career/current job, education, length of residence in Lake County and their particular city, and Web site, email or phone number where community members can contact them.

Candidates took time out of their busy schedules to answer nine questions submitted by Lake County News.

In addition, their campaign finance forms are presented.

Most of the candidates have submitted Form 470s, required by the California Fair Political Practices Commission for the period of Jan. 1 through Dec. 31 of this year.

The Form 470 is required if candidates raise or spend less than $1,000, or do not have a controlled committee.

If candidates file by the required deadline and do not exceed the $1,000 contribution or spending limit, no additional campaign statements need to be filed, according to the FPPC guidelines.

For candidates who have exceeded that $1,000 spending or donations limit, their Form 470 Supplement also is presented.
