1962 Edmonton municipal election information


The 1962 municipal election was held October 17, 1962 to elect five aldermen to sit on Edmonton City Council and three trustees to sit on each of the public and separate school boards. The electorate also decided two plebiscite questions. No election for mayor was held because Elmer Roper was one year into a two-year term.

There were ten aldermen on city council, but five of the positions were already filled: McKim Ross, Angus McGugan, Stanley Milner, Gordon McClary, and John Leslie Bodie were all elected to two-year terms in 1961 and were still in office.

There were seven trustees on the public school board, but four of the positions were already filled: Eric Duggan, Vernon Johnson, Edith Rogers, and P William Jones were elected to two-year terms in 1961 and were still in office. The same was true on the separate board, where Joseph Moreau, A A Gorman, Orest Demco, and Harry Carrigan were continuing.

This was the last election held under the old system whereby members of council were elected to staggered two-year terms. Beginning in 1964, all members of council were elected to two-year terms in the same year. The 1963 election was a transition election, in that all members elected this year were elected for one-year terms, to allow every position to be elected anew in 1964, and then every two years thereafter (in effect until 1968, when switch was made to three-year terms).
