A Saskatchewan hamlet is facing a challenge in the run-up to its November municipal election: No one is running for mayor.
Officials in Kyle, Saskatchewan said Mayor George Williams, who was elected in November 2021, is retiring this year, and so far, no candidates have come forward to seek the office.
Chief Administrative Officer Amber Dashney said two rounds of applications have gone out seeking nominations for mayor, but so far no one has signed up.
Rellik spoke with Amber this afternoon:
“It’s a little concerning, but I am confident that someone will step forward,” Dashney said.
Kyle, the hamlet of roughly 400 residents boasts a concrete woolly mammoth statue.
The cement woolly mammoth “Wally” honors of the discovery of the bones of a real mammoth found west of Kyle in 1964.
