In their own words, via the Town
Charles Mullett is a Bancroft native and has been a small business operator for most of his working career. He and his wife, Trudy, have one son together and a thirteen-year-old granddaughter. Charles began his municipal involvement in 1991 when he put his name forward to be elected as a Councillor for Dungannon Township – he was successful in that election and has now been involved in Bancroft/Dungannon municipal politics for over 20 years. Charles was elected Mayor for the Town of Bancroft in 2003 and was also elected Warden of Hastings County in 2005. Charles looks forward to working with newly elected council and states it is an honour and privilege to serve the residents of our great Community.

This council rarely calls recorded votes, so individual positions are only on the record where one was demanded. Under the Municipal Act that is the council's choice, not an omission in this record.

What this does not measure
- Motions moved is not a measure of effectiveness. Who moves a motion is often a seat convention or a committee role, and the member who does the work on a file is frequently not the one who reads it out.
- Nobody is ranked against anybody. These figures are counted against this member's own meetings and are never totalled or compared.
- Absence is not explained. The minutes record who was not there and almost never why. Illness, a declared conflict and a family emergency all appear the same way.
- What was said is not here. This record reads the minutes, which record decisions, not debate.
Something wrong here?
If anything on this page is wrong, say so and it will be corrected and the correction recorded. Everything here is read from Bancroft’s own published documents — where those documents and this page disagree, the documents are right. How this record is made.
