Carrboro Alderwoman Joal Hall Broun will not seek re-election. She released this statement this morning: 

"Thank you to all of my supporters, the voters and the people of Carrboro.  I enjoyed serving the citizens of Carrboro for the past twelve years.  I will continue to be engaged and involved in my community in Carrboro and Orange County.  However, I will not be seeking re-election to the Board of Aldermen at this time."

Three seats on the board, plus the mayor, are up this fall. Mayor Mark Chilton, Alderman Dan Coleman and Alderwoman Lydia Lavelle filed Friday, along with newcomer Michelle Johnson. The filing period ends July 15.
