Voter turnout for our 2022 municipal election was just 28%.
That low level was likely influenced by the limited choices available – the Deputy Mayor and Councillor positions were effectively all acclaimed.
For 2026, we are in the fortunate position of having a number of very well qualified candidates from which to choose for all seats on Council. It is therefore up to town residents to engage with this election, and cast our votes. We hope you will participate, and encourage friends and neighbours to do so as well.
The results of this election, and the make up of our next Council, are too important not to cast your vote.
