Senciboy wins Oran mayor's race

After 18 years with the same mayor, the city of Oran has voted Gary "Petey" Senciboy as the next Mayor of Oran. In a vote of 244 to 160, Senciboy beat out rival Leroy Eftink to replace the retiring mayor, Tom Uhrhan, taking 60 percent of the vote.

Both candidates campaigned on addressing infrastructure issues within the town.

Senciboy campaigned for a more user-friendly city hall and better communications for police and city employees.

He named ditch cleaning, culvert repair, upgrades to the city park and a citywide cleanup as issues he would like to see addressed if voted mayor.

Eftink addressed streets and a bridge needing immediate repair as well as supporting efforts to renovate the Missouri Pacific Depot to be used as a community center or a possible city hall.
