Council members decided to wait until Filmer’s leave, which started in mid-December, was over to set a date for the byelection. They will be asking the province to approve May 15 as the election date. Filmer took part in the council meeting Wednesday and participated in a Feb. 8 in-camera meeting regarding a report commissioned by the town to investigate nine complaints he made about conduct at city hall. The consultant’s report into Filmer’s concerns said it found no evidence of discrimination, bullying or harassment. Filmer posted on social media that his “fellow councillors gave a pattern of facts that does not square with my notes or memory.”
