In their own words, via the Town
Wayne Wiggins is entering into his fifth term on the Bancroft council and gives thanks for everyone’s support. Wayne had the honour of being Bancroft’s Deputy Mayor under Mayor Bernice Jenkins for one term. Wayne was appointed by Resolution as Deputy Mayor for the remainder of the term (2024-2026).
As published by Bancroft.
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.
