Valid requests have been received by the Proper Officer for an election to take place to fill the two vacancies to Upper Saxondale Parish Council.
The nomination period has now closed and Richard Ellis has been elected unopposed to one of the vacancies.
As a request was properly made by ten electors requesting a by election, there must be an election to fill the second vacancy.
Therefore, the Returning Officer is required to recommence the election process under Section 39(1), Representation of the People Act 1983 by fixing a new election date (within 35 days, excluding dies non, beginning with the day fixed as the previous day of election) and publishing another notice of election.
A notice of election has been published today and prospective candidates have until 4pm on Friday 23 October to submit nomination papers.
For further information on the election, or to request a candidates’ pack, contact Jeff Saxby, Electoral Services Manager, on 0115 914 8216 or by email to elections@rushcliffe.gov.uk
