Sangamon County Democrats are accepting applications for a vacancy on the county board in District 12.

Marc Ayers announced his resignation from the board last week and participated in his final meeting on Tuesday.

District 12 covers a section of Springfield west of MacArthur Boulevard, parts of Leland Grove and all of Jerome.

The opening must be filled by a Democrat, the same party as Ayers, according to state law.

Candidates must be at least 18 years old, registered to vote and a resident of District 12 for at least one year.

A resume and cover letter must be sent to SangamonDemCB12@gmail.com by Friday, April 24th at 5 p.m.
