If you’re considering nominating as a candidate for the 2024 NSW Local Government elections, you should read the candidate information page on the NSW Electoral Commission here. It provides general guidance about the process of nominating, and candidates’ eligibility, obligations and responsibilities.
Prospective candidates should seek their own independent legal advice if they are unsure whether they are eligible to run for public office in a local council or how the law applies to their specific circumstances.
Council in partnership with Locale Learning present the 2024 Candidate Election Briefing sessions for potential candidates. See session details for those interested in becoming councillors to see if it is the right fit for you.
