Current Deputy Mayor Lionel Jaikarran has not yet decided whether he will contest the mayoral elections scheduled for next month.
“I haven’t given it a thought or considered it but I am willing to serve in whatever capacity the citizens and councillors elect me in to serve,” Jaikarran said.
Mayoral elections are to be held annually.
Jaikarran explained that he is willing to return as Deputy Mayor for the city but noted that he would have to consult with his party before making an official announcement of his interest in contesting to be mayor.
