CARLYLE - The final member of Carlyle town council for the next four years was decided during Wednesday's civic election.
Tracy Van Dresar defeated Mary Moffat 119-48. There was just one spoiled ballot.
Van Dresar joins Mayor Jennifer Sedor, and Councillors John Brownlee, Hugh Hislop, Lauren Hume, Kelly Lutz and Gord Paulley on town council. Sedor is entering her second term as mayor.
A call for nominations was issued for town council in September. When the deadline passed on Oct. 9, Sedor was the only one to file for mayor, and Brownlee, Hislop, Hume, Lutz and Paulley had filed for councillor. They were all acclaimed.
A second call for nominations was issued, with Van Dresar and Moffat filing papers prior to the Oct. 23 deadline, so the town held an election for the one seat.
The Observer and SaskToday will have further coverage of election results in the southeast.
