Every councillor and the mayor are hoping to be returned to Belleville City Hall this October.
There is only one week left for candidates to file nomination papers for this fall’s municipal election.
In Belleville, it appears there will be just two candidates for mayor.
Incumbent Mitch Panciuk is seeking a second term but will face competition from former mayor Neil Ellis.
All current councillors are also running.
In Ward 1 (Belleville) Garnett Thompson, Kelly McCaw, Chris Mallette and Sean Kelly are all seeking reelection.
Tyler Alsopp and Carol Feeney who joined council mid-way through its term, are also running to keep their seats.
So far, 13 people have filed papers to run in Ward 1.
The others are Lisa Anne Chatten, Barbara Enright-Miller, Nick Boretski, Margaret Seu, Jeremy T. Davis, Robert Labarge and Mike Benson.
Paul Carr and Bill Sandison are looking to be reelected again in Ward 2 (Thurlow).
There are just two other candidates so far in that ward, Kathryn Brown and Michael Clark.
The nomination period closes August 19.
The municipal election is October 24.
