Fairbanks North Star Borough Assemblyman Aaron Lojewski may be term-limited off of the Assembly, but he’s not done with public service in the borough. He filed a letter of intent on Tuesday to run for mayor, the first to sign up for a seat that comes open in October of 2024.

Lojewski leaves Assembly Seat H after the Oct. 3 election is certified. He has served since being first elected in 2017.

Lojewski owns Fairbanks Aurora Tours, which specializes in sharing Alaska’s Aurora Borealis with visitors for viewing and photography in the Fairbanks area through van tours. He was previously a licensed real estate agent who has a master’s degree in resource and applied economics from University of Alaska Fairbanks, where he also earned a bachelor’s degree in finance. He served as a volunteer board member of Interior Gas Utility and is an Eagle Scout.

Current Mayor Bryce Ward is in his second term and is term-limited, having been sworn in in 2018.
