Manson tenders her resignation from Kenora city council

A surprise resignation from Kenora City Council.

Barb Manson has submitted her letter of resignation as of May 30th.

Manson is a first-time city councillor and a long-time city employee.

She did not give a reason for her resignation in open council Tuesday evening.

Under the municipal by-law, a by-election can’t be held after the end of March, but council can choose to appoint someone to fill the vacancy within 60 days.

A municipal election is already being held in October.
