Nominating as a Candidate
In accordance with clause 31 of the VLGA’s Constitution, the two elected board members will hold office for three years subject to the provisions of this clause.
The term of the two councillors elected in 2022 will expire on 30 June 2025 and therefore will be deemed vacant for the purposes of this election. Councillors from all VLGA member councils* are eligible to nominate for election to the VLGA board.
