PLETTENBERG BAY NEWS - Bitou's municipal council is looking a bit different after a special council meeting on 24 October when a new councillor was sworn in.
Tiphany Harmse now takes the Patriotic Alliance's PR seat in council.
The seat became vacant when former PA councillor Michele Botha stepped down to take one of Knysna Municipality's controversial new positions.
She has been appointed chief of staff in the office of new Knysna mayor, ANC councillor Aubrey Tsengwa and resigned from the Bitou council on 30 September.
Harmse, formerly from Nelson Mandela Bay, was sworn in by Director for Community Service, Melony Paulsen.
Bitou Speaker Claude Terblanche congratulated and welcomed Harmse to municipality.
