Watson is trying for a third time to fill an empty spot on its council.

Kevin Frerich resigned from council in May. Since then, there have been two calls for nominations that haven’t seen any candidates come forward. The third call for nominations is underway, with the form due Sept. 12.

“If you’re passionate about your community, if you want to see some changes or you want to help out somehow, this is a great way to do it,” said Erin Schreiner, the town’s administrator.

If there’s enough nomination forms submitted by deadline, the byelection will be held Oct. 17.
