Windsor Ward 2 City Councillor Frazier Fathers has announced he's running for re-election.
Fathers was elected in a byelection last fall after Fabio Costante left municipal politics for the top job at the Windsor Essex Housing Corporation.
He faces two other candidates so far, Nick Markham and Anthony Jabbour.
During his campaign last fall, Fathers said he intended to run in the upcoming municipal vote, adding that ten months would not be enough time to address the challenges facing Ward 2.
"Over the past year, we have laid important groundwork and made real progress, but there is much more work ahead," said Fathers. "Building stronger neighbourhoods means addressing the major issues facing West Windsor, while also staying focused on the little things that affect residents every day, the condition of a park, a missed garbage collection, a dangerous intersection, an abandoned property or a concern that has gone unanswered."
Fathers said his re-election campaign will focus on maintaining momentum in West Windsor, listening to residents, and building a plan to move forward.
Election Day is October 26, but candidates have until August 21 to file their nomination papers.
