If you work for either a local government/school district or provincial/federal governments or other employer -- you will want to check in with your supervisor or HR person before submitting an elected office nomination for local government or School Districts #27/28 as there may be additional requirements including taking a leave from your work position and subsequently resigning from your job, if elected...
As I mentioned last week, a website to keep handy is the BC Local Gov't/School District Election Reporting System 2018 which is run by Civic Info BC. In September, as individuals become official candidates for the Oct 20th local government/Board of Education Elections, you can monitor it there... click here
