This is Councillor O'Byrne's third term of office as Mayor. It is the usual custom for the Mayor of Wetherby to serve a two-year term. Members felt that Councillor O'Byrne's first two years had been unduly affected by the Covid-19 pandemic and as such re-elected him for the 2022/23 period. 

If you wish to invite the Mayor to an event or function, please contact the Town Council offices, giving the following details:

• Date, time and expected duration of your function.
• Whether you require the Mayor to perform a specific function (e.g. starting a race, cutting a ribbon etc).
