Vacancy Following the sad passing of Cllr Ellen Morton on 3rd October 2020, there is currently a vacancy in the Helensburgh and Lomond South Ward. Under normal circumstances a by-election must be held within three months of the vacancy arising. However, given the current public health advice applying in Scotland, and in line with the provisions of Section 70 of the Coronavirus Act 2020, the filling of the vacancy can be postponed where reasonable and appropriate. The Returning Officer has made the decision to postpone the poll and the new date has been set for 18th March 2021. Local residents who need to contact a ward councillor should get in touch with Cllr David Kinniburgh or Cllr Richard Trail.
