The Town of Lake Placid is accepting applications to fill a vacancy on Town Council created when Colleen Charles’ seat became open following her election as mayor.
Interested residents have until 5 p.m. on Monday, April 27 to submit their information to the Town Clerk’s office for consideration.
Under the town’s municipal code, vacancies are filled by a vote of the remaining council members along with the mayor. The appointment is expected to take place at the May 11 Town Council meeting.
To be eligible, applicants must be a qualified voter, reside within town limits, and maintain residency for the duration of the term. Council positions are nonpartisan and require participation in regular meetings, workshops, and town decision-making.
