Who Needs Village By-Election?

A village by-election is typically required when a vacancy occurs in an elected position within the village governing body. The need for a by-election arises when:

1. A village councilor resigns or is removed from office before their term expires.
2. An elected village councilor passes away while in office.
3. A village councilor becomes ineligible or disqualified to hold office due to legal or personal reasons.

In these situations, a by-election is conducted to fill the vacant position and maintain the representation and functioning of the village council. The by-election allows eligible residents to exercise their democratic right to choose a new councilor who will serve the remaining term.
