PEMBROKE — Current Warden and Reeve of the Town of Renfrew, Peter Emon, and Reeve of the Town of Arnprior, and current chair of the County Finance and Administration Committee, Walter Stack, have both been nominated for the 2016 Warden’s seat.
A ballot vote by County Councillors will take place on December 8, during the Inaugural Session of County Council to decide who will assume the Office of the Warden of the County of Renfrew for 2016.
A formal nomination process takes place annually for the Office of Warden, and any member of County Council is eligible after being nominated by two fellow council members. The successful councillor then fills the Office of Warden for a term of one year. The Warden fulfils the role as head of council. The nomination process closes 30 days prior to the Inaugural Session and if there is more than one nomination, an election is required to determine a Warden at the Inaugural session.
