He welcomed people to the third annual Diversity Business to Business Expo at Lorain County Community College and is a supporter of the Multicultural Business Center (one of the partners of the Diversity Expo).

John Hunter is running for the first time as mayor of Sheffield Village.  John Hunter’s commitment to the community is evident by the many organizations he has worked with, including his service as a board member of the Lorain County Community College Foundation.

John Piskura is running for re-election for Mayor of Sheffield Lake. Mr. Piskura’s campaign slogan “Continue the Progress” fits nicely as he has moved Sheffield Lake in the right direction for years and continues to bring good things to Sheffield Lake.
