Jason Schulz says his second try at running for council in Laurentian Valley has turned out in his favour after he was elected to be a new voice at the table.
Having run in the previous election, he says a lot of lessons were learned that he was able to carry forward to secure his victory, resulting in less nerves and more confidence.
Schulz is entering his first term, and when asked about how the dynamic between incumbents and new council members will work, he says there will be a good blend from all backgrounds.
One of the first Schulz would like to work on would be drainage, as well as infrastructure.
He said one of the biggest components will be working collaboratively with other jurisdictions.
Schulz won his position with 1,610 votes and will be joined by Jay Geddes, Allan Wren, Brian Hugli and Wendy Hewitt.
