Supervisor opts out for 2020
Lambert won’t seek to keep District 4 seat on Butte County board
Butte County Supervisor Steve Lambert, who has represented the district spanning south Chico to Gridley since 2009, will not seek a fourth term next year. Lambert (pictured) confirmed his retirement to the CN&R by email.
Biggs Mayor Nathan Wilkinson announced last Thursday (March 21) that he’s seeking the District 4 supervisorial seat and listed endorsers, including Lambert, District 1 Supervisor Bill Connelly of Oroville and former District 2 Supervisor Larry Wahl of Chico.
Also running is Tod Kimmelshue, a county water commissioner and president of the Northern California Regional Land Trust.
