THE by-election for the vacant district council seat in Drakes Broughton is to be held next month.
It had been expected that following the resignation of councillor Ralph Mason the election would take place in August, but it is now due to be held on Thursday, July 18.
Candidates have until tomorrow (Friday) to submit their nominations to the council.
Votes on July 18 can be cast at Drakes Broughton village hall, 1 Elm View, Pirton, and Stoulton village hall, but anyone wanting to apply for a postal or proxy vote needs to register by July 10.
