There is no need for a byelection at Grimshaw.
Two nomination packages for the two vacant sets were received by the Aug. 6 deadline. As a result, Lynn Florence and Bob Regal have been acclaimed to serve as councillors for the Town of Grimshaw.
Florence and Regal will be officially sworn in at the Aug. 28 meeting. They will each serve a one-year term, leading up to the municipal elections in Oct. 20, 2025.
At its June 12 meeting, councillors Christina Bissell and Phillip Jacobs resigned prompting the scheduling of nomination day and a possible byelection.
At its June 26 meeting, council set nomination day for Aug. 6. Election day, now not needed, was set for Sept. 3, saving election expenses and the time of the voters.
