| The Town of Richibucto was
incorporated in 1967 as a village, following an economic boom
and numerous commercial, industrial and residential developments.
The status of the municipality changed to that of Town, in
June of 1985.
Geographically situated at
100 kilometers north of Moncton, the town covers an area of
11.4 square kilometers, with a population of 1,314 inhabitants.
Bordered by the majestic Richibucto River, the main business
and real estate activities have developed along its coasts.
The Town is accessible via Route 11 and Route 134, as well
as by water, for fishing and pleasure boats.
Town Council
The town council is elected through municipal elections,
for a 4-year term. The voters in the municipality elect a
mayor and four councilors. Each councilor, over and above
the various committees he or she sits on, is assigned a municipal
file where he or she will become the resource person and the
town representative in this particular file.
