Councilman Barry Brucker Won't Seek Re-Election

After 16 years as an elected official, Brucker is leaving public office to focus on his family and business.

Former Mayor and current Councilman Barry Brucker announced that he will not run for re-election to the City Council in March 2013.

"Having served two terms on the school board, two terms on council and being mayor twice, and after deep contemplation with my family, I have decided it's time for a new chapter in my life," Brucker told Patch. "I am grateful and humbled by the community's support over the last 16 years. I am also grateful for the opportunity to serve and represent this wonderful community."

Brucker is looking forward to spending time with his family and traveling with his wife, Sue. Having recently been issued two new patents, he is also excited to focus more on his business.
