Shilo Terek qualifies for November ballot for Grover Beach City Council District 1
GROVER BEACH, Calif. (July 31, 2026) — Community leader and longtime Grover Beach resident Shilo Terek has qualified for the November 2026 ballot for the District 1 seat on the Grover Beach City Council after submitting nomination signatures that were certified by the City Clerk, exceeding the number required under California election law.
The certification marks an important milestone in Terek’s campaign and reflects early grassroots support from neighbors throughout District 1.
“I’m incredibly grateful to every resident who took the time to sign my nomination papers,” Terek said. “Those signatures represent more than a requirement to appear on the ballot — they represent trust. I’m committed to earning that trust every day by listening, being accessible and making thoughtful decisions that serve the long-term interests of Grover Beach.”
A Grover Beach resident for more than 16 years, Terek brings professional experience in regulatory compliance, communications and organizational leadership. She is a principal program manager at PG&E, holds a master’s degree in public administration and has volunteered with numerous local organizations and schools throughout San Luis Obispo County.
In a recent interview, Terek emphasized her belief that Grover Beach can embrace thoughtful growth while preserving the welcoming coastal character residents value. She has also spoken about the importance of transparent leadership, listening to residents and evaluating projects on their individual merits rather than relying on one-size-fits-all approaches to governing.
Anna Andriese, a District 1 resident, longtime friend of Terek and owner of Haute Skillet, said Terek would bring a fresh perspective to the community.
“Shilo brings the kind of new energy Grover Beach needs,” Andriese said. “She listens before she speaks, asks thoughtful questions and genuinely wants to bring people together. As both a small-business owner and a District 1 resident, I’m excited to support someone who cares deeply about our community and is committed to helping Grover Beach move forward.”
Terek said her campaign will continue to focus on meeting residents where they are through neighborhood conversations, community events, local business visits and door-to-door outreach.
“I don’t believe the best ideas come from behind a desk,” Terek said. “They come from conversations with the people who call Grover Beach home. My goal is simple: Be kind. Be curious. Be brave. And work hard every day to represent District 1 with integrity.”
The general municipal election will
be held Tuesday, Nov. 3, 2026.
