Village of Holden extends nomination deadline
The deadline for nominations for the Village of Holden’s by-election was Monday, Oct. 7.
But with no nominations filed yet, Returning Officer Christine Mackay has had to extend the deadline.
“We are currently in Day 2 of nominations because we have received no submissions yet,” Mackay said. “Residents can still hand in nominations from 10 a.m. to noon today, and if we don’t receive any then we will have to keep it open till Tuesday, Oct. 15.”
According to the Alberta Municipal Affairs, if no nominations are received by the deadline set at the outset, the Returning Officer has to keep them going for six days before contacting the Alberta Municipal Affairs. . . . contd.
