The Lake Travis ISD board of trustees canceled the May 6 election at a meeting March 22.
Two candidates had filed for uncontested races for the Lake Travis ISD board of trustees, as of the filing deadline on Feb.17—Robert Scott Aird for the Place 6 position and Keely Ann Cano for the Place 7 position.
Because both of the races are unopposed, the Lake Travis ISD board of trustees unanimously voted to cancel the election.
Current Lake Travis ISD Place 6 trustee William Beard had initially applied for re-election but later withdrew his application.
Marco Alvarado, Lake Travis ISD executive director of communications and community relations, said it is typical for the Lake Travis ISD board of trustees to cancel elections when all candidates are running uncontested.
