There are five other elected trustee positions representing areas in the region served by the KPRDSB but these areas are not in the County of Peterborough so I have not included them in this episode. There is also one appointed position representing the First Nations in the KPRDSB region, which rotates every year in November, at the time this program was recorded, the new trustee had not yet been selected.
