At a Special Board Meeting today, trustees determined a process to fill a vacancy on the Board. The vacancy is a result of the recent passing of Chair Carl Pitman.

Trustees approved a motion to advertise in local newspapers for a trustee to represent the electoral districts of Municipality of Centre Hastings, Marmora/Lake and Deloro Township, Madoc Township and Stirling-Rawdon Township.

The process is outlined in Policy 3-H: Filling Vacancies on the Board (pages 19 to 21).
