Smith took out challenger Victoria Serda, who was elected as a PortElgin councillor in 2006. by more than 3,500 votes, 4.790 to 1,273, according to unofficial results released by the town Monday night. Charbonneau defeated incumbent deputy mayor Doug Freiburger by a margin of just under 600 votes, 3,541 to 2,999. For Smith. the campaign was not just the past seven weeks, but the pre- vious four year term. "You go to all the events and you i support your community," he said. "I enjoy doing that. I enjoy seeing all the groups in our cemmunity and sup- porting thern wherel can." Smith is looking forward to the next erm where he thinks early priori- ‘es will be to begin the Official Plan review process and continue to fos- if Kent Mllroy ter a great working relationship with Saugeen First Nation. Serda was gracious in defeat, saying she did her heSt and hoped that the new council would consider some-of the ideas she campaigned for. "I think i ran a different kind of campaign than they've seen in town before, where I really tried to involve people and listen,‘ she said. "It's disr appointing, but the community has spoken," _ The race between Charbonneau and Freiburger was expected to be a nail biter, with Charbonneau's mar- gin of victory surprising many at the election parties in Saugeen Shores. But Charbonneau believed from the start his platform resonated with the voters. "It's the waterfront, it‘s economic . development, it‘s downtown. it‘s all the things that people really want to see happen," he said. With the defeat, Freiburger draws the curtain, at least for now, on 13 years of public service for Port Elgin and Saugeen Shores.
