District 1 City Council race is underway

In the 1st District, Democrat Rich Kilby said he's planning to run with Cliff Block in this year's municipal campaign.
Block, who ran unsuccessfully for the part-time council seat in 2005, said he's not ready to say what his plans are this time around.
They'll be aiming to hang on to the seat that longtime Councilor Art Ward is giving up in order to run for mayor this year.
Republican Mike Rimcoski, who defeated Block two years ago, is likely to run again. But Rimcoski said he's also not ready to declare his intentions.
There is no word yet on who might run with Rimcoski.
