Ron Schnurr is coming back to South Bruce council.
The Municipality appointed Schnurr, to take over from Mildmay-Carrick councillor, Audrey Bross who resigned in February.
Bross was one of two Mildway-Carrick councillors acclaimed to the position during last October’s municipal election.
Schnurr is a former South Bruce councillor with strong ties to the community with history both on council, and as a member of many local sports and community organizations.
South Bruce Mayor Mark Goetz said he feels that Schnurr will be a great addition to the council, adding that his previous experience as a councillor and his current involvement with numerous community committees will be an asset.
“I’m excited to collaborate with Councillor Schnurr to continue the work of this council,” Goetz said.
