Thursday, 3 May 2012 is an important day for democracy in Conwy County Borough.
It’s the day we go to the polls to elect Councillors to represent us on the Council for the next four years.
The County Borough Council elections will take place alongside elections for Town and Community Councils.
Some people may be thinking about standing for election and the Council has launched a campaign to provide as much information as possible about becoming a Councillor, so that individuals can make an informed choice on whether or not to stand.
Conwy County Borough Council has published a guide on becoming a Councillor, which is available on the website at www.conwy.gov.uk/councillors
Copies are also available by phoning (01492) 576067/8/9 or by e-mailing [email protected]
Copies of the Welsh Local Government Association guide ‘Be a Councillor’ are also available.
In January, information sessions to explain what is involved in becoming a Councillor will be held at Conwy Business Centre, Llandudno Junction:
- Thursday, 12 January 2012 at 2pm
- Tuesday, 17 January 2012 at 10am
- Tuesday, 31 January 2012 at 6pm
The sessions will also include information about voting and making sure that you are on the electoral register if you are eligible to vote.
The nomination period for candidates for the County Borough elections will start at the end of March 2012.
