Board vice president Hendrik van Wyk has recused himself from the meeting because he is running for city councillor in the byelection.
Candidates Charlene Izuka and Mark Seymour are also running for council.
Candidates Carolina Hopkins, Barry Noll and Gerry Shaw are running for mayor.
Advance polls open at the MacArthur Centre Wednesday, Sept. 30, from 8 a.m. through 8 p.m.
General polls open at the centre on election day, Saturday, Oct. 10, also from 8 a.m. through 8 p.m.
The byelection was triggered by the March 2020 resignation of former mayor Ed Smith. Then councillor Gerry Shaw subsequently resigned his seat in a bid to replace Smith.
