Qualifying, Voting, & Applying
While Neighborhood Council board members are volunteers, they are public officials elected by the members of their community. NoHo Neighborhood Council board members serve two-year terms. Learn more about our 22 open seats through this graphic:
Unlike other city, state, or federal elections, voting and being a candidate in Neighborhood Council (NC) elections is open to more than just the residents of a community. Participation is open to those who live, work, or own property or a business within an NC's boundaries, as well as to "community interest stakeholders," such as church members, local students (or parents of students), or members of local service organizations.
Candidates need not be US citizens or legal residents to qualify. Participation is also open to the formerly incarcerated. The minimum age to vote is 16; the minimum age to run for most NC seats is 18. Voting in all NC elections this season will only be vote-by-mail.
