In the Village of Senneville, all six councillors already have been acclaimed — having taken their seats without opposition.
In the mayoral contest, a three-way race is brewing that is centred on small patch of land along the borders with Sainte-Anne-de-Bellevue called the Triangle.
The Triangle has been something of a political football in the area for years.
It was originally owned by a school board and then sold to various developers.
Nevertheless, its future remains in doubt and each candidate has a different idea of what should be done with the plot.
George McLeish wants construction plans for the area to be scrapped.
Cam Mickie wants the owner to at least develop the 12 single-family homes he has permits to construct.
Julie Brisebois wants more consultations before a final decision gets made.
An early proposal included more than 220 units, but that was scaled back to about 120, and then scrapped altogether.
As it currently stands, the developer can build 12 houses on land between Elmwood Avenue and Anciens-Combattants Street.
Former mayor George McLeish admits they has the right to build the homes, but told Global News he wants no more than that.
There is no current time frame for the developer to decide what to do with the property.
