2025 Spring Hill mayoral and aldermen candidates gathered for a community meet and greet at Community Baptist Church, March 18, 2025.

The Spring Hill municipal election is this week on Thursday, April 10.

Residents will cast their votes at their designated polling center. Those are: Longview Rec Center, Spring Hill Library, Spring Hill Community Center, Wright Elementary School, Spring Hill Middle School (Spring Hill High School voters will also be moved to this polling location) and Battle Creek Elementary School.

Voters can head to the polls on election day from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. at their voting precinct, which can be found at this link. The Williamson Scene will be reporting results as they are released on Thursday evening.

In this election, Spring Hill citizens will choose their next mayor from four candidates: John Canepari, Matt Fitterer, Jim Hagaman or Rick McCreadie. Hagaman is the incumbent mayor while Canepari and Fitterer both hold alderman seats that are not currently up for election. If they are not selected by voters to be the next mayor, they will continue to serve in their alderman positions until their terms end in 2027. McCreadie has not held a public office in Spring Hill.

The Spring Hill Chamber of Commerce held a forum with the mayoral candidates in February. The chamber has shared a full video of the forum on its Youtube page for those who could not attend to have a chance to review the candidates responses. The Williamson Scene has shared that video below in addition to our own Q&As with each of the candidates.

Rick McCreadie has not returned our request for the Q&A. We will update this story when it is received.

Voters will also choose one alderman that represents each of the four wards in Spring Hill. The city's Board of Mayor and Alderman is made up of two alderman in each ward. The chamber held another meet and greet event in March for constituents to have a chance to meet with their respective candidates from each ward.

Ward 1 Alderman Jason Cox is not running for reelection and voters will choose between Alex Jimenez and Teri Mai.

Ward 2 alderman William Pomeroy, who is also the current vice mayor, is running for reelection. Also seeking the Ward 2 seat are Jaimee Davis, Greg Groninger and Scott Wernert. 

In Ward 3, sitting alderman Kevin Gavigan is not running for reelection. Voters will choose between Diane Cochran and Erinn Hartwell. The Williamson Scene has not received Cochran's Q&A. We will update this story when it is received.

Current Ward 4 alderman Trent Linville is running for reelection. He faces opponent Kimberly Hughes for the seat.
