Application Guidelines
1) Contact the municipal city clerk or district filing location to confirm that your registered address qualifies you for the position you intend to run for, and that you meet other office specific qualifications. 2) Complete the application and file with the municipal city clerk or the district administrative office. If your municipality or special district has over 5,000 people, there is likely a filing fee or a nominating petition in lieu of a filing fee, which must accompany the application. 3) Submit the application and if applicable make sure the application is accompanied by either the application fee or nominating papers. The filing window for Texas municipal elections is generally 108-78 days prior to the election.
