Dear Sirs
THE STORNOWAY TRUST ELECTION 2015
I write to confirm that an election to fill the member vacancies, occurring as a result of five Trustees coming to the end of their term of office, will be held on Thursday 26th March 2015.
At the end of the statutory nomination withdrawal period nine nominees will contest the five available seats, a list of which I now append for your information.
In line with recent Trustee elections the Trust has engaged the services of Electoral Reform Services Ltd (ERS) who will shortly issue postal ballot papers to all persons appearing on the Electoral Roll and living within the Stornoway Trust area who will be 18 years of age or over on the day of the election.
A ballot box will also be available within the Estate Office from 8am to 8pm on the day of the Election to receive voting papers from electors who may be unable to return the postal votes by the ERS receipt deadline of noon 26th March 2015.
The ballot box votes will be counted in the Woodlands Centre on Thursday evening after which the votes cast will be added to the result of the postal ballot and an announcement on the outcome issued as soon as possible thereafter.
Should you wish further information relating to the above please feel free to contact me.
Yours sincerely
Iain M Maciver
Returning Officer
