She explained that most cities have primaries for local elections which is <br /> not the case in Arden Hills. If Arden Hills had a primary for local elections, the calendar <br /> would be accurate. There will be a statewide primary in Arden Hills, as in other cities. The <br /> period for filing affidavits of candidacy for local office is August 30, 1994, through <br /> September 13, 1994, for the election on November 8, 1994. Filings for the local election <br /> cannot be accepted until August 30, 1994. <br /> Filla recommended that new notices be sent out and one staff person designated to answer <br /> any questions of anyone who comes in to file. Malone indicated that he understood from a <br /> Secretary of State employee that there would be a court decision to allow for the August- <br /> September candidacy filing. Filla indicated that since this is clearly a miscommunication, a <br /> court ruling is not necessary. <br /> . <br />
