Vacancy for Town Councillor

In light of no by-election being called by ten electors, a casual vacancy has arisen for the Watermoor Ward.

The Town Council can adopt its own procedure for co-option, the only pre-requisite is that the process is transparent and made known in advance to all candidates. The successful candidate is then co-opted by an absolute majority vote of the Council.

The Council has agreed that the process be, by a written expression of interest being received by the CEO, Andrew Tubb at andrew@cirencester.gov.uk no later than Friday 13th June at 4pm, including whether or not you are standing for co-option for a political party; you would then be invited to give a brief 5-minute talk to Council on June 24th at 6.30pm at which meeting a vote will be taken.
