PLACERVILLE, California (InEDC) Nov 17, 2022 \u2014 Placerville Newswire Calls Placerville City Council Race for NICOLE GOTBERG, JOHN L CLERICI, and DAVID YARBROUGH leaving Incumbent DENNIS THOMAS in 4th place, and without a seat on the Council.<\/p>\n
Gotberg is a geologist, Clerici is a former City Council member, Yarbrough is a real estate agent, and Thomas is a current City Council owner of Robinsons Pharmacy according to the Mountain Democrat<\/a><\/p>\n
Thomson has been embroiled in a number of controversial issue that may have cost him voter support and was the subject with other Council members of a Recall effort in 2021. Thomson was Mayor during much of the struggle of some to retain the Logo as it has been for many years or to update the Logo. It was a divisive battle.<\/p>\n
“When it comes to these names and as they are represented throughout our community that we’re not going to go out and start telling businesses that they can’t have that name on here,<\/strong>” Thomas said. “That we’re going to take it off all the signs, that we’re going to whitewash our town of all things.<\/strong>” ABC<\/a><\/p>\n
