Arroyo Grande mayor (D) announces she will not seek re-election

The Arroyo Grande Mayor has announced that she will not be pursuing another term in the November Election. She said she feels now is the best time to step away from public office.

Susan Evard has lived in Arroyo Grande at two points in her life. Once between 2000 and 2005, and again from 2020 until now. She said there have been major changes since she first called the city home.

“There wasn't as much going on in the Village," Evard said. "I think the Village has become much more vibrant and a real center.”

Caren Ray Russom has served as mayor since 2018. She announced earlier this month that she will not be seeking re-election in November. She said she feels like this is the best time to step away from the position.
