(a)adding the names of voters who are entitled to have their names on the list;
(b)deleting the names of persons who are not entitled to have their names on the list; and
(c)making such other corrections of errors to the list as required.
VOTER ELIGIBILITY:
A person is eligible to have their name added to the Voters List if they are:

2)a resident of the local authority for at least six (consecutive) months prior to the by-election day, OR a registered owner of land in the Municipality for at least six months prior to the by-election day.
APPLICATION FOR PERSONAL SECURITY PROTECTION:
A voter may apply in writing to the SEO (at the address/email below) no later than 5:00 PM, Wednesday, March 24, 2026, to have their name and other personal information omitted or obscured from the voters' list to protect the voter’s personal security. The application may be submitted in person (by appointment only), by mail or by email and must include your name, address and proof of identity. In a civic election, that person may only vote by Sealed Envelope Ballot and cannot vote in person at the regular or advance voting places.
NON-RESIDENT VOTERS
A maximum of two non-resident voters per property are permitted to vote in a municipal by-election/ election. To be included on the voters’ list, each voter must obtain written consent from a majority of the registered landowners and file this with the SEO. If the SEO does not receive the consent form from a non-resident voter who owns property with more than two other property owners, the voter must not be included on the voters' list.
The municipal by-election takes place April 29, 2026. Changes to the voters' list can only be made until the close of the nomination period, which is 5:00 PM, Tuesday, March 24, 2026.
