Notice of Councillor Vacancy: Troon Ward

Former Town Councillor, Simon Barnes, has resigned from the Council. We have issued ‘Notice of Vacancy’ for Troon Ward.

There are now 14 days in which electors can request an election. For an election to happen, the request must be:

  • made by 10 electors from the electoral area (the parish or, for warded parishes, the ward of the parish) where the vacancy exists;
  • in a signed letter (or letters) to the Proper Officer, Electoral Services, Cornwall Council at the address below;
  • received by the Proper Officer by the deadline specified in the notice of vacancy.

If you add your name to a petition, or write to Cornwall Council to request an election, please be aware that election petitions are public documents and are available for inspection.

If the 14 working day period expires and an election has not been requested by 10 electors, Camborne Town Council will be informed. Camborne Town Council can then co-opt a qualified person onto the council to fill the vacancy.
