All council positions are three-year terms commencing on May 1, 2020 and ending on April 30, 2023.
If you are interested in submitting a nomination form, it must include at least the minimum number of nominators required for the council area you are seeking. Nominators must be members in your executive council area and in good standing. The nomination form is attached here.
