MEMBERS FILLING VACANCIES

If you are elected in the middle of the year to replace a member who resigns, the law requires you to complete your training within 30 days after you are elected. If you have never been on a council before, you need the new member training. If you have been a council member in the past, you can choose which experienced member session to attend.
