A municipality north of Napanee will ask residents during this year’s election if they want electoral reform.
Stone Mills Township council has approved the bylaw needed to add the elections-at-large question to the ballot of the October vote. The mayor is elected at large, but three of the five councillors represent one ward, and one councillor is chosen in each of the two other wards. The results will be binding for 2014 only if 50 per cent of the eligible voters have cast ballots, and over 50 per cent of them are in favour of elections at large.
