Incumbent Chief Councillor Don Roberts has been elected to lead the Kitsumkalum Band Council for another term.
It was a tight race for the position as Band members hit the poles yesterday, with Roberts securing just one more vote than runner-up Troy Sam.
Chief Roberts is in his 16th year in the role, which he will fill for at least another 2 years, following last night’s election.
While Sam may have narrowly missed out on the Chief role, he was selected to fill one of 7 councillor positions.
Six of the seven are returning members, including Sam, Cynthia Bohn, Lisa Wesley, Jeanette Spalding, Aaron Horner, and Wayne Bolton.
Warren Bolton, meanwhile, will be the sole fresh face on Council, while Bohn led all vote-getters with 126 from 166 ballots cast.
