Massachusetts H5332 amends the City of Holyoke Charter to provide procedures for filling vacancies in the office of mayor and city clerk. If a vacancy in the office of mayor occurs more than six months before the end of the municipal year, the city council must call for a new election. Similarly, if a vacancy in the office of city clerk occurs within the same timeframe, the city council must elect a replacement until the next municipal year. The bill also allows the city council to fill vacancies in the city council itself under certain conditions.
