AUBURN — Nomination papers are available for the vacant Ward 4 City Council seat.

Ernestine M. Gilbert announced her resignation Dec. 19, saying she would be moving from her home in Ward 4. 

Nomination papers may be picked up at the City Clerk’s Office on the first floor of Auburn Hall. Office hours are Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. At least 25 signatures of qualified voters from Ward 4 are required.

All nomination papers must be filed with the city clerk no later than 4:30 p.m. Thursday, March 30. However, all candidates are requested to file their nomination papers early in order to provide sufficient time to obtain additional signatures if necessary.

The election is scheduled for June 13 and is for Ward 4 voters only. The winner will serve until December, when the term expires.

Questions about the procedures for nomination papers or the election process may be directed to City Clerk Sue Clements-Dallaire, 333-6601, extension 1126, or [email protected].
