As we look ahead to November’s elections, Pleasant Hill Patch is committed to bringing you the information you need about every race in town.

In five months Pleasant Hill voters will cast ballots for three city councilmembers, the city clerk and the city treasurer. Here is the timeline for filing as a candidate:

The nomination period will begin at 8:30 am on Monday, July 16, 2012 and end at 5:00 pm on Friday, August 10, 2012. However, if one of the incumbent officeholders does not file by the August 10 deadline, the nomination period for that vacancy will be extended (for any qualified person, other than the incumbent) until 5:00 pm on Wednesday, August 15, 2012.
