Village Council election coming in March: candidates need to file paperwork soon

The Village of Estero will be holding an election on March 7, 2023, for Council Districts 3, 4, 5 and 7 where three of the four current Councilmembers will be termed out.

The Village is asking residents from these districts to consider becoming a candidate for a four-year term Council position.   To qualify, a candidate must have lived in the district they wish to represent for a minimum of one year.

To avoid a filing fee, candidates may start collecting signatures of support from friends and neighbors once they have filed with the Lee County Supervisor of Elections Office. Candidates need to supply their Candidate Petition Form by December 14, 2022.

Here is a link to the Lee County elections website that is dedicated to providing all necessary information for candidates from the Village of Estero, as well as a link to a March 2023  map which map which shows all districts within the Village of Estero.
