There will be no municipal election at Grimshaw Oct. 20 and the new council will have a decidedly different look with four of seven members being new.
Nomination day closed Sept. 22 with the minimum one candidate running for mayor and six for council so all were elected by acclamation.
The mayor is now Stacey Messner, who was a current councillor. Current Mayor Wendy Wald did not seek re-election.
Election to council for the four-year term from 2025-29 are Tanya Allen, John Bak, Lynn Florence, Chad Krantz, Collen Sklapsky and Dirk Thompson.
Councillors Steven Hennings, Carmen Johson and Bob Regal did not seek re-election. Incumbents Florence and Sklapsky are joined by four newcomers: Allen, Bak, and Krantz and Thompson.
