About a dozen applicants are looking to fill a vacant seat on the Brookfield Board of Education.  The group received nine applications by Friday's deadline.  Who ever fills the roll has to be a Democrat or an unaffiliated voter according to minority party rules.  The seat is open through the 2015 election. 

It was vacated by 26-year old Greg Beck, who was elected as part of the "A Brookfield Party". 

Beck, an emergency dispatcher, came under fire just after the election when he posted a Facebook comment on a 26 Acts of Kindness page leading up to the 12-14 anniversary saying he would buy his gun enthusiast friends ammunition.  Beck apologized and deleted the comment shortly after.
