As the City of Milton gears up for its municipal elections, potential candidates are being reminded to mark their calendars for August 18 to August 22. During this period, officially known as the Qualifying Period, those aiming to see their names on the ballot will need to step forward and file their "Notice of Candidacy." The state has mandated these dates for Milton along with other local governments in Georgia.

For those looking to join the political fray, the doors of City Hall will welcome candidates from 8:30 a.m. to Noon, and then again from 1 to 4:30 p.m. during the specified dates. Contenders can throw their hat in the ring for a range of offices including the mayoral seat and various city council posts across three districts, the city's official news release states.

City Clerk Tammy Lowit is the go-to contact for individuals with inquiries about the candidate qualifying process. Prospective candidates and interested citizens alike can reach out to Lowit at her email, [email protected], for more information or assistance.
