A four horse race is shaping up for the mayor's chair in the Region of Queens. Three current councillors and a former mayor have already declared their intentions to run for the position when municipal elections are held this fall. Potential candidates include Owen Hamlin, Mervin Hartlen and Darlene Norman. Former mayor Christopher Clarke has also announced his intention to seek the mayor's seat. Clarke served as mayor for a term from 1996-2000. Current mayor John Leefe announced he wouldn't seek re-election in March after holding the title for the past 12 years. A mayors debate is being organized in Liverpool with a tentative date set for September 18th at the Astor Theatre.
