Editor’s note: This story has been updated to show that Barbara Johnson is a candidate for Commissioner Position 3 in the Wallula Water District 1 race. Her name incorrectly appeared under the wrong race.
Walla Walla resident Brian Cariveau has entered his name for the Walla Walla City Council seat held by Ted Koehler, who is not running for reelection.
Cariveau will vie for Position 4 alongside Monte Willis, who joined the race Monday.
