Goderich Mayor Deb Shewfelt presided over his last council meeting last night.
Shewfelt has been involved in municipal politics for the last 29 years, 20 of them as Mayor Goderich.
Shewfelt points to the recreational facilities and assuming ownership of the harbour as two of the town's greatest achievements over that time, and the tornado as the single event that had the most impact.
Shewfelt still chairs the Maitland Valley Conservation Authority and sits on the Walkerton Clean Water Centre Board but he'll also have a little more time for himself now and he's looking forward to that.
