An unsuccessful Rocky Mountain House mayoral candidate has regained her seat on council through a byelection.

An unsuccessful Rocky Mountain House mayoral candidate has regained her seat on council through a byelection.

Sheila Mizera gave up her seat on council to run for mayor in last October’s municipal elections but lost out to Fred Nash.

Mizera got another crack at council when first-time councillor Rudy Lange had to step down because of health issues.

In a Jan. 15 by election, Mizera finished with 167 votes, Jim Kult had 139 and Matthew Kramer had 43.

A fourth candidate and former councillor Ernie Murias had submitted nomination papers but later withdrew.
