Chestermere residents are heading to the polls on Monday to elect a new mayor and five councillors from over two dozen candidates, following the Alberta government’s dismissal of the former mayor and three councillors last year due to governance issues. The fired officials, including ex-mayor Jeff Colvin, are running to reclaim their positions. Shannon Dean, a former councillor, is also a mayoral candidate. The new council’s priority will be to address the 94 recommendations from a recent financial probe, which identified multiple issues with city expenditures. The election results will be hand-counted, with unofficial results expected early Tuesday morning.
