Corinne council cancels November election after unopposed candidates; city will re-advertise one council seat next year
Summary
The council adopted Resolution 2505 to cancel the November municipal election because only one mayoral candidate and two council candidates filed; the council plans to reopen recruitment for a remaining council seat in the new year.
The Corinne City Council adopted Resolution 2505 to cancel the November municipal election after election staff recorded only one candidate for mayor and two candidates for the two available council seats. Council members said they will cancel the election and advertise for the second council seat at the start of the new year.
Councilmember Tom Little moved to adopt Resolution 2505; the motion passed by voice vote. Council members described the outcome as a straightforward administrative step under state election rules when the number of candidates does not exceed the number of open positions.
Staff will proceed with the cancellation process as required by election law and will publish notices and timelines for filling the additional vacancy next year.
