Deadline extended for voting system feedback in Hastings Highlands

The debate continues on whether or not Hastings Highlands should change its voting system, and you now have more time to have your opinion heard.

In May, a delegation asked Hastings Highlands Council to look into changing the system because the Monteagle Ward gets the same representation as the Herschel Ward despite having half the amount of eligible voters.

Council has presented a number of options on what a new voting system could look like, including having a municipality-wide election instead of wards.

Council has voted in favour of giving residents until February 1st to submit their opinions.
