At least one of the two Fayette County Board of Education posts up for election this year will have a familiar face from the past in the running.

Bob Todd was one of the first candidates to qualify this week in the county’s local election qualifying. Todd previously served on the school board in the late 1990s after retiring from the local system as director of secondary schools.

Todd qualified to run for the Post 4 school board position, currently occupied by Greg Powers. Powers was first elected to the board in 1998.

Current board member Lee Wright also qualified in the Post 5 race.

In the County Commission races, incumbent Linda Wells qualified in Post 4. Local banker and former commission candidate Sam Chapman also qualified in the race. Chapman is a mortgage banker and was the campaign manager for newly elected Commissioner Robert Horgan.

Attorney Eric Maxwell qualified in the Post 5 race, the post currently occupied by Commission Chairman Greg Dunn.

Qualifying ends noon Friday.
