EXTRAORDINARY VACANCY: EDEN/ALBERT COMMUNITY BOARD
| Jason Marris |
|
| Team Manager, City Development and Transport |
30 October 2009 |
Advising that at the conclusion of the Eden/Albert community boards' meeting on
28 October 2009, board member Ryan Hicks was absent without leave of the
community board for the fourth consecutive meeting. This has therefore resulted
in an extraordinary vacancy on the board.
As
the vacancy has occurred within the 12 month period leading up to the next
triennial election, Council does not have the right to call a by-election. In
this situation then, section 117 of the Local Electoral Act (2001) gives the
community board two options.
Recommending that the board resolve to fill the vacancy by appointing a person
qualified to be an elector (subject to confirmation at a meeting of the board to
be held during December 2009), or leave the position vacant for the remainder of
the triennium.
