A long-time councillor in Woodstock will be looking to get re-elected in the upcoming municipal election.
WOODSTOCK - A familiar face is back on the ballot in Woodstock for the upcoming municipal election.
Connie Lauder has been on City Council for 18 years and wants to continue helping with the growth of the City. Lauder says why she has been and wants to be involved with politics.
"I have always felt that serving the community is what I'm here for. And prior to being on council, I worked for the City of Woodstock as the tax collector."
Lauder adds she has had many highlights throughout her time on council, and the Art Gallery is one she is proud of. Lauder says the City is growing, meaning projects will have to get done in order to keep up, but mentions tough decisions will have to be made.
"The big thing is, how are we going to pay for it? That's one of the reasons why I would like to be at the table to help make these decisions in a very responsible way."
Residents will cast their votes on Monday, October 26, 2026.
