Want to represent your Key Biscayne neighbors by helping to set policy as a member of the Village Council?<\/p>\n

“The pay is lousy,” once quipped Ed London, who is being termed out of his two-term, eight-year run on the volunteer board of elected officials.<\/p>\n

Three seats are up for grabs, including those of Oscar Sardi\u00f1as and Fernando Vazquez, both of whom are eligible to run again this November.<\/p>\n

There will not be a mayoral election since Brett Moss is running unopposed<\/a> and will take over for Mayor Joe Rasco after the Nov. 3 general election.<\/p>\n

To be eligible, residency in Key Biscayne for at least one year is mandatory.<\/p>\n

The qualifying period for the Council seat role begins at noon, on Monday, Aug. 10 and ends at noon, on Thursday, Aug. 20.<\/p>\n

All candidates must complete the filing of their qualifying paperwork with the Village Clerk before the close of the qualifying period. There is a $100 entry fee.<\/p>\n

Qualifying information is available at Village of Key Biscayne website<\/a>, Village Clerk\u2019s office.<\/p>\n

If you are interested in becoming a Council candidate, scheduling an appointment with the Village Clerk is highly recommended but not required. You may call (305) 365-5506 or email jkoch@keybiscayne.fl.gov<\/a> for further information.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Want to represent your Key Biscayne neighbors by helping to set policy as a member of the Village…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":362781,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[52983,147494,25534,25535,126,123,125,124,53157,127,147493],"class_list":["post-362780","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-miami","tag-brett-moss","tag-council-seat-role","tag-ed-london","tag-fernando-vazquez","tag-key-biscayne","tag-miami","tag-miami-headlines","tag-miami-news","tag-oscar-sardias","tag-village-council","tag-village-council-candidate"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/362780","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=362780"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/362780\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/362781"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=362780"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=362780"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=362780"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
