At the beginning of an elected term, Council members must determine who will act as Deputy Mayor in the event the Mayor is unavailable. Councillor Angie Warwick has been appointed to serve as Hanna’s Deputy Mayor for the term beginning Jul 1, 2024, and ending Feb 28, 2025.
There may be times the Deputy Mayor will be required to officiate at a meeting, sign cheques or attend a function as the Town representative. Bylaw 1015-2021 states that Council members will be appointed to serve terms of eight months as Deputy Mayor to perform the duties as permitted in the Municipal Government Act.
