A BY-ELECTION is to take place in Moreton after a councillor resigned.
Don Bryson has resigned as councillor from the Moreton-in-Marsh Town Council.
Robert Weaver, the chief executive of Cotswold District Council, said: "The vacancy will be filled by election if a request from ten local government electors for the Town is received within 14 working days.
"The request must be received by November 1, 2023."
If 10 signatures are not received by the date given, the Town Council may fill the vacancy by cooption.
If an election is called, it will take place no later than January 8, 2024.
Requests should include each elector’s name and address and should be sent to the chief executive by emailing elections@cotswold.gov.uk.
