A special election will be held in March to fill two seats on the Gillsville City Council. The election will be held to fill the positions of mayor, now held by Larry Poole, and two council seats, currently held by Tim House and Roy Turpin. The three seats were up for re-election this year but no one qualified.

On advice from the Secretary of State’s office, the council set a special election to see if anyone qualifies. There was some confusion about the qualifying times and location during the 2009 qualifying period.

Qualifying for the positions will be held from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Jan. 19, with a one-hour lunch period; from 8:30 a.m. to 12 p.m. on Wednesday, Jan. 20; and from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on Thursday, Jan. 21, with a one-hour lunch period.

The qualifying fee for mayor is $18 and $9 for each council seat.

The election will be held from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Tuesday, March 16, at the city park building.
