PRINCE GEORGE — With the municipal election set to take place in hours, on October 15 Prince George residents will cast their votes for mayor and city council, there is also another election taking place.

Residents of Electoral Area A in the Regional District for Fraser-Fort George, will elect a new director. This will be the only election in the RDFFG for electoral areas, as the other six incumbent directors in areas C, D, E, G and H were acclaimed, as they had no opponent to run against.

Electoral area A is the exception this election cycle, as Kyanna Coe and Victor Mobley are both in the hunt to become the new director. Incumbent director Warren Wilson did no seek re-election.

Victor Mobley believes that with a straight-forward, honest approach he can best represent the approximately 3500 residents of electoral area A. Mobley believes that the close, tight-knit community culture present in the area is an attractive quality to bring in new business and in turn, foster growth.
