Sam Brentano is seeking reelection as Marion County treasurer in the November 3, 2026, general election. Marion County Elections lists him as the sole named candidate for the office.
Experience and education
The county’s elected-official term register lists Brentano’s current treasurer term as January 3, 2023, through January 3, 2027.
An archived county biography from his commissioner service records his appointment to the county board in November 2003 and elections in 2004, 2008 and 2012. It describes service as Sublimity mayor from 1982 to 1993 and retirement in 2001 as president and general manager of United Disposal Service.
The biography lists a bachelor’s degree in business from Oregon State University, attendance at Kennedy and Woodburn high schools and 20 years of volunteer firefighter and emergency medical technician work. These are historical biographical details, rather than claims that he currently holds those earlier roles.
The treasurer’s office
The county treasurer’s office oversees county cash management and investments, including bank accounts and the State Treasury Local Government Investment Pool.
