How long are board member terms? With low turnout in these elections it should be easy to organize and throw the bums out.

Edit: looks like the terms are for two years and elections are going to be in April.

Actually the terms vary by village. Some are one year and some are two.

One would think...

There was an effort in 2020 to try to throw the bums out. Unfortunately, conspiracy minded folks on the left and right joined forces with the cronies on the board to wage an all out smear campaign against the challengers. It didn't matter what was true, as long as enough sh*t was thrown out there to keep the focus away from the horrible job they were doing.

Some villages have 1 year terms, others have 2 year terms.

Hickory Ridge, Oakland Mills, and Wilde Lake have 1 year term up for election every April.

Dorsey's Search, Kings Contrivance, Long Reach, and River Hill have 2 year terms up for election next in April 2023.

Harpers Choice, Owen Brown, and Town Center have 2 year terms up for election next in April 2024.
