Ms Telford resigned from council in October, but has offered no public explanation for her decision since, aside from a letter to local paper Midland Express explaining only that it was "time to move on".
Another councillor – Tony Bell – resigned in within days of Ms Telford.
His replacement remains uncertain following a countback for the Castlemaine ward on Monday, whereby successful candidate Christopher Cole declined the role.
A second countback will be required in the ward.
