Notes
- Governance of the city was temporarily transferred to a taxpayer advisory committee led by Joseph Oliver for part of 1973, after five of the city's six councillors resigned on July 9, 1973 in protest against a jurisdictional dispute with the Yukon Territorial Council,[1] leaving the council without a quorum to conduct city business; Wybrew was also dismissed as mayor during this committee governance period. Following a by-election on September 20, 1973, Wybrew returned to office and served until December.[2]
