In Richfield's recent school board race, which was not competitive because there were 3 people running for 3 seats, these are the results. Carter was the only incumbent on the ballot, and received the least votes, which I think says something about how people feel about him.

Lomabonita Mercado finally opened today at the HUB! Most of the parking in the strip was taken up by people checking it out! Tons of raffle prizes were given out, they had a Mariachi band, and traditional Mexican dancers! So excited for this addition to our town!

Interesting that the percentage of staff at Richfield Public Schools that would recommend the district to parents has risen from 68% to 85% in the last 4 years.
Hard to have a good district if 2/3s of staff won't recommend it; this shows good changes have been happening
