I’m stoked to be Revelstoke city council rep to the Economic Development Commission, Tourism Infrastructure Committee, and Arts Revelstoke, whose teams play key roles collaborating, supporting and partnering with a network of community organizations keen to make great events thrive.

One local note from the Ministry of Environment/Parks is an ongoing process looking to better integrate outdoor rec values into decisions about forestry roads, such as finding options for keeping roads with high rec use open when they’d otherwise be closed after forestry use ends.

It was recently restored to near original specs. Finished in 1939, It’s an early example of west coast modernism. Designed by C.B.K. Van Norman, it originally hosted city hall and the fire department, hence the hose tower. Van Norman’s best known for work in YVR including 815 Chico and Park Royal.
