Beaverton, Oregon residents interested in running for election to the Beaverton City Council can now obtain a Candidate’s Filing Handbook.

Four City Council positions elected at-large are open. The deadline in filing is Tuesday, Mar. 8 at 5 p.m.

Councilor Positions 1, 2 and 5 will be nominated at the Primary Election and elected at the General Election to serve a four-year term.

At the Primary Election, the two candidates with the most votes for each position will proceed to the General Election ballot.

The candidate with the majority of votes at the General Election is elected.

Councilor Position 3 is a vacant position due to resignation with three years remaining on the unexpired term for this office.
