The vote for the mayoral posts was previously slated for the council's November 21 meeting, but mayor Kev Poulton has brought the date forward.
The meeting has been announced before a countback procedure on December 6 following the resignation of Councillor John Watson due to a cancer diagnosis.
Cr Poulton refused to commit to a special meeting last week after speculation that one was under consideration by the council.
