Anyone who is considering a run for municipal office or school board trustee in October’s 2018 Municipal Election is invited to attend a City of Kingston hosted information session.

The event – which the City notes is not a candidate debate forum – takes place on Tuesday, April 24 between 6pm and 8pm in Council Chamber at City Hall.

Information will be provided to prospective candidates and the public about the City’s governance model (including role of the Mayor and councillors), the role of school board trustee, time commitment, remuneration, orientation, and the municipal election process (including rules and regulations regarding campaign finances).

Ministry of Municipal Affairs and school board representatives will also be on hand to provide information and answer questions.
