Robyn Thompson Lake has been acclaimed as a new village councillor for Delia.
The seat on Delia Village Council became available when Councillor Dawn Bancroft retired in February.
Nomination day was Monday, April 1 and Thompson-Lake was the sole candidate to let her name stand.
This is the first time Thompson-Lake has been on council. She ran in the 2017 general election but was edged out. She is a part-time stylist in the village and a full-time mother.
“I would like to encourage growth in the community. We would like to get more visitors, and more visitors that might want to move here, especially with the new school being built, we are trying to get more people here to use it,” she said.
She joins Mayor Dave Sisley and Jordan Elliott on council.
