A new face will be added to both City Council and the School Board after a by-election on September 10th.

Resignations by former Councillor Earl Colbourne on April 29th and former School Trustee Mike Lawson earlier in April require a by-election be held.

The City and the School District have agreed to equally cost-share the by-election.

Rather than electronic tabulators, this by-election will use paper ballots which will be hand-counted.
