Hilliard 2026 Guide Covers Council Race, Charter Amendments

What the guide covers

Hilliard’s 2026 voter guide centers on the town’s council election and proposed amendments to the Hilliard charter. Both matters concern how the town is governed and will be part of the local election discussion.

What voters should review

Voters should read the official ballot language for any charter amendment and review the election information issued by the town or election officials. The amendment wording will determine what would change if voters approve it.

The guide’s title identifies the election and the proposed charter amendments but does not include candidate names, candidate positions or the text of the amendments. Those details should be confirmed through official election and town records before voting.

Why charter amendments matter

A town charter sets basic rules for local government. Changes to that document can affect how the town operates, so voters should compare the proposed language with the current charter and understand the effect of each change before marking a ballot.
