On Sunday, October 22, Toledo City Councilman John Hobbs, who is running to retain his District 1 seat, joined his supporters for a community rally at 3117 Nebraska Avenue. Hot dogs and hamburgers were served and visitors were also treated to exhortations from Hobbs’ supporters why he should be kept in place as District 1 councilman.
Hobbs was appointed to the District 1 seat in September 2020 by Judge Puffenberger. He currently serves as vice chair of the Public Safety & Criminal Justice Reform Committee; the Reginal Growth, Development & Small Business Enterprise Committee and the Water Quality & Sustainability Committee.
Hobbs is running for a full four year term to represent District 1 – facing opposition from Shaun Strong.
