Local Government Elections important for the future of Cuttagee Bridge.

Hello All,

The campaign to save Cuttagee bridge is proceeding apace. We are currently focused on the forthcoming Council elections, to be held on 4 September. 

I’m writing to ask you to ensure you enrol to vote in the Council elections both as a resident or a non-resident landowner. 
 

It is a little-known fact that non-resident landowners are eligible to vote at NSW Council elections. There is a special enrolment process which requires you to complete a form and send it to the Bega Valley Shire Council which will manage your enrolment for the forthcoming election.

The deadline to enrol is next Monday 26 July! 

There is a limit of one vote per property. Depending on if you're a sole owner or a joint-owner, there are different procedures and forms. Joint owners need the 'Nominee application' form
 

The forms are available  on the BVSC website at 
https://begavalley.nsw.gov.au/cp_themes/default/page.asp?p=DOC-RBM-55-48-21
then click on 'Non-resident ratepayers voting information’. 

The forms can be completed, signed and witnessed electronically.

If you can, please be sure to enrol so that you can vote with our bridge in mind! 

Thank you!
