Next door in the County of Elgin, the election of a warden for 2026 will take place on Tuesday evening at the county administration building.
So far, only Malahide Mayor Dominique Giguere has announced her intention to seek the role, although interested members of county council can still submit their name.
Should no other candidates step forward, Giguere would be acclaimed Tuesday evening.
The last female warden was Aylmer Mayor Mary French in 2022. She defeated Central Elgin Deputy Mayor Tom Marks and Dutton Dunwich Mayor Bob Purcell.
Current warden, Southwold Mayor Grant Jones, will serve as deputy warden next year.
The election will take Tuesday at 7 p.m.
