Nomination day for the vacant Alderman and Common Councillor positions with the Corporation of Hamilton will be Thursday, June 14.

Mayor of Hamilton Sutherland Madeiros called for people to put their names forward for the roles after the Corporation announced the date yesterday.

The Alderman position became vacant following Mr. Madeiros’ election as Mayor last October, while the new councillor will replace Jim Butterfield, who resigned earlier this month.

If there is only one nominee for either post, that nominee will be appointed automatically.

To be eligible to run, candidates must be a registered voter or the nominee of a registered voter within the City of Hamilton.

Nomination forms and information regarding eligibility for the vacant positions are available from Corporation secretary Kelly Miller on 292-0916 or e-mail kmiller@cityhall.bm
