Following the final meeting of the 2022–26 Kincardine council, Wednesday evening, the municipality extended thanks to the outgoing members, including mayor Kenneth Craig, and councillors Beth Blackwell, Stellina Williams, Bill Stewart and Jason Munro, for their leadership, dedication and commitment to serving the community.

Throughout this term, council has worked to address the evolving needs of the municipality while planning for the future, states a press release from the municipality, issued Thursday.

From supporting community growth and housing opportunities to investing in infrastructure, strengthening local health care, advancing economic development and enhancing community services, their decisions have helped shape the municipality for years to come.

"The work of municipal government is not always easy, and the decisions made around the council table have a lasting impact on our community," said Kincardine chief administrative officer Alan Smith. "We sincerely thank council members for their time, commitment and willingness to serve. Their contributions, perspectives and dedication to public service have helped move important initiatives forward and establish a strong foundation for the future."

As the municipality prepares to welcome a new term of council, the contributions of outgoing members will continue to be reflected in the projects, partnerships and priorities that support the community.

The 2026–30 council will be officially sworn in Monday, Nov. 16, with the first regular council meeting scheduled for Wednesday, Nov. 25.
