Two people are in the running to become Barriere's next mayor when voters go to the polls March 1.
The District of Barriere (DOB) released the candidate nominees who have put their names forward - former mayor of Barriere, Bill Humphreys, and former deputy mayor and district councillor, Rob Kerslake.
A byelection was called following the resignation of former mayor Ward Stamer who was elected as the MLA for Kamloops-North Thompson in the recent fall provincial election.
These names will appear on the ballot and become official once the Declaration of by-election is authorized by the close of business on Monday, February 3.
There will also be an election for councillor.
Candidate nominees are Stephen Boylan, former DOB councillor, Alan Fortin, Bob George and Brody Mosdell who is the youngest candidate running.
These four candidates will be running for the seat vacated by Kerslake who was required to step down as a district councillor while running for mayor.
Candidates may withdraw their nominations up to 4:00 p.m. on January 31. The official campaign begins on February 1 in the District of Barriere.
