The upcoming by-election for both the Thompson City council and the School District of Mystery Lake Board will be held Tuesday, October 13th.
A resolution to set the date for the by-election was passed at Monday night’s council meeting.
It is being held to fill the vacant councillor position left by the passing of Judy Kolada earlier this year, and the school district told the city that they will have a trustee spot open by that time as well.
The city will be looking into modifying some of the voting measures to make sure they are following provincial health guidelines to lower the risk of spreading COVID-19. It will also be encouraging residents to use the mail-in voting ballots.
