Due to a resignation, a vacancy exists at Wilmslow Town Council for the Wilmslow East Ward of the town.
As reported last month, Fiona McNulty, who was elected in May 2015, resigned after 11 months due to work commitments.
The vacancy will be filled by election if, within fourteen days (excluding weekends and Bank Holidays) from 16th May, any ten voters in the Wilmslow East Ward submit a written request for an election.
If this happens there will be a period of time for candidates to be nominated and if two or more candidates are nominated there will be an election.
If no such request is made, the vacancy will be filled by the Town Council, who will be at liberty to select who they wish, provided the person qualifies to be a councillor.
Any request for an election to be held to fill the vacancy must be in writing and sent to the Returning Officer, Cheshire East Borough Council, Westfields, Middlewich Road, Sandbach, CW11 1HZ.
