by Kelsey Snelgrove
od Crowe has been elected as the new Mayor of Chase, after an extremely tight race. The results show Crowe won with 256 votes, just 11 votes over fellow candidate David Lepsoe. “I’m looking forward to working with th newly elected Council, the CAO and other Village Administration and Public Works,” said Crowe. On Council, Alison Lauzon, who
topped the polls with 773 votes, will join incumbents Ali Maki (753 votes), and Steven Scott (585 votes). Fred Torbohm, who received 641 rounds out the new Council. Just 36 per cent of eligible voters cast a ballot across the province in municipal elections last weekend – while in Chase we had a 58.5% voter turnout (1094 ballots cast out of 1871 eligible voters).
