The date by which potential candidates were to have submitted 15 verified member signatures nominating them for candidacy, was April 3rd. By that date, only the incumbent director in District #5, Rube Felicelli, had turned in a completed packet with enough verified signatures. In District #7, only one candidate, Jake Kurzweil, had turned in a completed packet with enough verified signatures.

In both Districts, the sole candidates will be deemed elected per SMPA Bylaws. No ballots will be sent to voters in 2025. Per requirement of SMPA Bylaws, the nomination signatures of all candidates are available to view here.
