RESIDENTS will have to wait until next May to choose two Saddleworth Parish Councillors for the Greenfield Ward after a by-election was called.
Neil Allsopp and Alan Belmore resigned from their roles in September as they are both moving away from the area.
Ten electors in the ward put forward a request for an election to fill the vacancies, rather than the Parish Council co-opt two new members.
Due to regulations made under Section 61 of the Coronavirus Act 2020, the by-election will take place on May 6, 2021.
