Bowling Green City Council Member At-Large Greg Robinette has filed petitions to run for re-election for his seat on Bowling Green City Council in the November 2025 general election. Robinette is a Republican who was elected to the seat in 2017 and 2021 and serves as chair of the Finance and Ways and Means Committee.
Robinette is a 30-year resident of Bowling Green. He previously served on the Zoning Board of Appeals, and on the Planning Commission.

“I look forward to continuing to serve the citizens of Bowling Green for the next four years. I am proud of the collaboration between City Council and the city administration to ensure essential services have been maintained, that infrastructure has been improved, and in creating an environment that encourages new businesses to come to Bowling Green, and current businesses to grow and invest in our community,” stated Robinette.
