Interested candidates for the vacant councillors seat in Nipawin have a chance to learn more about what the position entails.

A prospective candidate information session will happen Wednesday, Feb. 13 at 7 p.m. at the Evergreen Centre.

Returning officer Barry Elliott told northeastNOW they held similar sessions during the last civic election, and the two previous byelections.

“We’ve tried to provide a bit of information to prospective candidates just so that they have a sense before they submit their nomination paper and make final decisions,” Elliott said. “Just to help them understand what some of the elements are of the role, time commitments, and scope of the role.”
