A casual vacancy arises when a seat on the Town Council becomes vacant during the current term of the Council.
This could happen for the following reasons:
The Town Clerk must inform the BCBC Election Office when a casual vacancy occurs, stating the name of the councillor and the reason. The election office will then provide the notice of a casual vacancy and the Town Clerk must publish the Notice of Casual Vacancy in “some conspicuous place or places within the community area”. For example, on the Town Council noticeboard and on its website.
