Fairview Votes

Municipal elections are held every four years at which time residents elect one Mayor and six Councillors to a four-year term. In Fairview, Council members are elected at-large, which means the Mayor and Councillors represent the entire population rather than a geographical ward. Voters choose up to six candidates for Council, and one candidate for Mayor.

The last election was held on October 18, 2021 to determine the 2021 - 2025 Fairview Town Council.
