Ward 1: your councillor, their promises and the council record
By Windsor News Desk | Updated Oct. 28, 2026
Everything Council Watch tracks for Windsor's Ward 1, with a source for each item.
Your councillor-elect
Darcie Renaud Unofficial received 3,166 votes (40.17%) with all 15 polls reporting. Source: City of Windsor election results. The City Clerk has not yet declared the results official. The new term starts Nov. 15, 2026.
Darcie Renaud was not on council in the 2022 to 2026 term, so there are no recorded votes yet.
What Darcie Renaud promised
Taken only from the candidate's own campaign site or their own published answers to the Windsor News questionnaire, with the date we read it. Council Watch tracks each one over the term: the promise tracker.
Create a Home Plumbing Assessment Grant and expand the basement flooding program to include sewage ejector systems.

Council decisions that name Ward 1
67 agenda items at 43 council and committee meetings named Ward 1 in their title (51 different titles: the same matter often goes to a committee first and then to council). Items marked "City Wide" or that name no ward are not counted, so this is a guide to local items, not every decision that affects the ward. Newest first.
