PROCEDURE FOR FILLING VACANT COUNCIL SEAT
Village of Ridgewood
Procedure for Filling Vacant Council Seat – June 18, 2010
The Village Council has chosen not to fill the vacant seat on the Village Council. The seat will remain vacant until the November General Election, at which time a candidate will be elected to fill the remainder of the vacant term until June 30, 2012.
Any Village resident, who is a registered voter, may run in this election. The filing deadline will be in September 2010. The same process as was used for the Municipal Election will be used. Nominating petitions will be filed with the Village Clerk’s Office, which must then be verified by the Village Clerk, and once the required number of petitions has been reached, the Village Clerk will certify the candidates to be placed on the November General Election ballot.
The candidate who wins in the November General Election will take office immediately following the November General Election.
