Three years ago, Mr Cull did not offer Lee Vandervis any of the positions as a committee chairperson or deputy chairperson, saying he had no confidence in the outspoken councillor.
Despite Mr Vandervis being returned as the highest-polling councillor in the local government elections two weeks ago, Mr Cull has again bypassed him for positions.
A report to the council's inaugural meeting next Tuesday shows Mr Cull has given every one of the 14 other councillors a position.
