Chapleau Town Council has a busy night ahead - including discussions about how to fill a vacant seat and setting fees for the new year.
In addition to determining how to fill the vacancy left when Deputy Mayor Rick Smith resigned in October - Council must decide whether to appoint someone to the seat or declare a by-election less than a year before the October municipal election - tonight's regular meeting agenda includes by-laws setting the 2022 rates for refuse collection, water, and sewage services, as well as implementation of the Municipal Accommodation Tax.
The meeting will be held in Civic Centre Council Chambers, with the public able to attend - following COVID-19 measures such as masking and physical distancing - starting at 6:30 pm.
