STNC BOARD ELECTIONS - ELECTION DAY IS APRIL 2

Posted on 01/31/15

Sunland-Tujunga Neighborhood Council (STNC) will hold elections for all 21 seats next year on Saturday April 2, 2016. Now is the time to learn more about what it takes to be a board member. The Los Angeles City Clerk has opened online Candidate Filing as of Saturday, December 19, 2015 and it will close on February 2, 2016. Get involved in improving the quality of life in Sunland-Tujunga. Voters must be 16 years old to vote and provide proof of your stakeholder status. Voter Registration will be available, online, in advance of Election Day.

Even if you are already registered to vote in regular city, state and federal elections, you will need to register for the STNC election separately, as the systems are different. Also, if you are a stakeholder for multiple Neighborhood Councils, you will need to register for each one separately.
