Prospective candidates have until Friday April 9 at 2pm to drop off their nomination papers. And \u201c2pm is a hard deadline,\u201d says Harpelle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">CHMA took a look at what\u2019s involved in the various elected positions on the ballot for May 10, 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>SACKVILLE TOWN COUNCIL<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In Sackville, there are 9 elected positions open on town council, 8 councillors and one mayor. The positions are part-time, with council meeting formally twice per month most of the year. Councillors also have liaison duties, which involve meetings with staff from various departments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Deputy Mayor Ron Aiken, who has declared himself a candidate for mayor this year, told CHMA in December that the time commitment varies. When he took over mayoral duties for John Higham, who retired at the end of September, Aiken says his workload just about doubled. \u201cThere&#8217;s some weeks when you don&#8217;t do much at all, and there&#8217;s some weeks you&#8217;re spending 30 hours at it,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All nine elected representatives receive a small salary for their work, with the mayor getting just shy of $15,000, and councillors receiving just over $7800. After the election, a deputy mayor is appointed by council and they receive a slight bump in salary to just over $8800.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For those interested in finding out more about these elected positions, some Sackville residents have organized an informal, virtual &#8220;Open House\u201d featuring several current councillors and staff there to \u201canswer your questions about civic life.\u201d The Open House takes place next week, on Tuesday, March 23rd at 6:30pm. To join the meeting via Microsoft Teams, <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3lkvEYv\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">click this link<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So far, two candidates have declared themselves as candidates for Mayor in Sackville, Ron Aiken and current councillor Shawn Mesheau.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>DISTRICT EDUCATION COUNCILS (DEC)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sackvillians can run for either the Anglophone East School District (Subdistrict 2) or the Francophone Sud School District (Subdistrict 5).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Sackville-Anglo-DEC-map-screencap.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"880\" height=\"752\" src=\"https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Sackville-Anglo-DEC-map-screencap.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11441\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Sackville-Anglo-DEC-map-screencap.png 880w, https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Sackville-Anglo-DEC-map-screencap-300x256.png 300w, https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Sackville-Anglo-DEC-map-screencap-768x656.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 880px) 100vw, 880px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Sackville&#8217;s Anglophone District Education Council boundary map.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Sackville-Franco-DEC-map-screencap.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\" height=\"740\" src=\"https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Sackville-Franco-DEC-map-screencap.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11440\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Sackville-Franco-DEC-map-screencap.png 960w, https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Sackville-Franco-DEC-map-screencap-300x231.png 300w, https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Sackville-Franco-DEC-map-screencap-768x592.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Sackville&#8217;s Francophone District Education Council boundary map.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">District Education Council (DEC) members also get paid, though with modest amounts meant to cover their costs. Regular council members receive $3000 per year, as well as having council-related travel costs covered. The elected chair of each council receives $6000 per year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Flavio Nienow of the Department of Education and Early Childhood Development says that the remuneration is, \u201cnot intended to compensate a member for their volunteer time but will off-set costs that a person might incur as a member of the DEC such as babysitting or office supplies.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Though the \u2018pay\u2019 is much less than a local town councillor, the time commitment may also be less. Though it varies from district to district, each DEC must have a minimum of 10 public meetings a year. \u201cHowever,\u201d says Nienow, \u201ccouncils may plan for additional meetings, information sessions and community engagement events as needed. The estimated time a DEC member spends on their duties is equal to 15 workdays a year. The bulk of that time is for public meetings which are generally held on weeknights.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>REGIONAL HEALTH AUTHORITIES (RHA)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">People in the area also have a shot at sitting on the board for one of the province\u2019s two health authorities, Horizon or Vitalit\u00e9. Both boards are comprised of 8 elected members and 7 members who are appointed by the Minister of Health, as well as some non-voting members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The boards typically meet four times per year, plus an annual meeting. Elected RHA members receive $500 per full-day meeting and $250 per half-day meeting, as well as compensation for travel expenses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the Horizon network, Sackville sits in subregion B1, and for Vitalit\u00e9, it\u2019s in subregion A1. Both regions are the exact same area, but with separate representatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Sackville-RHA-map-screencap.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"957\" height=\"741\" src=\"https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Sackville-RHA-map-screencap.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11442\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Sackville-RHA-map-screencap.png 957w, https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Sackville-RHA-map-screencap-300x232.png 300w, https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Sackville-RHA-map-screencap-768x595.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 957px) 100vw, 957px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Sackville&#8217;s RHA boundaries for the Horizon Health Network.
