General Municipal Election announced for April 10, 2018 to elect three city council members for Districts 2, 3 and 5. (This will be the first election since switching from at-large elections to district elections.)
Why 15,982 Arcadians can't vote in this year's election. This is the first district-based election in Arcadia under the new law, only Arcadians living in one of the five districts may vote only for the representatives running in their district. Originally, there were three seats up for election but Mayor Pro Tempore Sho Tay ran unopposed and was appointed to the office.
