Election of Councillors
Our chairman and vice chairman are elected every year at our annual meeting held in May. Parish Councillors are elected every 4 years and the next election year is 2023
Casual vacancies can sometimes occur during the period and when this occurs, the Clerk should inform Electoral Services at the Principal Authority. Electoral Services will put notices up (or send them to the Clerk to put up) advertising the vacancy.
The notice allows for a period of 14 days in which 10 people can call for an election. If so called, an election must be held within 60 days of the notice of the vacancy, otherwise there can be a co-option. (Rule 8 of the Local Elections (Parishes and Communities) Rules 1986).
VACANCY
We currently have 2 vacancies for a parish councillor and if you wish to be considered for co-option please enquire to the clerk Sandra Morrison The Grange, Main Street, Thwing, YO25 3DY Tel 01262 470496 thwing.clerk@outlook.com. Councillor's introduction Guide
