Earls Colne Parish Council election update
A notice of election was published on 19 June for 5 parish councillors vacancies for Earls Colne Parish Council.
As only 5 candidates came forward to stand for election, the number of candidates did not exceed the number of available seats. This means a public vote is not required, and the election is uncontested. Those candidates are automatically "elected" to the parish council and there is now no need for an election to take place on 24th July.
Having finalised the formalities, the following people have now formally become the Earls Colne Parish Council councillors:
Phil Wall, will also be joining them as a Earls Colne Parish Councillor following completion of the formalities, shortly.
A vacancy notice for a further 4 vacancies was displayed in the Earls Colne Parish Council noticeboard last week and invites anyone wishing to call an election for those vacancies to provide us with ten signatures by 22nd July.
