Week 1 response to Lumby and District Chamber of Commerce questions

1. What do you think are the top 3 things Lumby can do to improve the downtown business economy?
  1. Village can improve signage to local amenities (schools, arena, ball park, curling club, skateboard park, pool, health unit) 
  2. Village can continue improving the walking/cycling connections between residential areas and downtown. 
  3. White Valley Parks, Recreation and Culture Committee can expand its scope to include organizing cultural events and sports tournaments. 

2. To any candidate not a resident of Lumby, what is your reason, justification or motive in running for office?
  1. I am a resident / homeowner in the Village. 

3. What personal strength do you have that would make you a good candidate for Municipal Council?
  1. Experience working with small groups to determine priorities and then work together to get things done 
  2. Financial reporting, budgeting and cash flow management experience 
  3. Belief that Lumby is a great place to raise a family, but there are actions Village council can take to make it even better. 

Email me with your ideas for question 1.

My understanding of the meaning of the Okanagan word "en'owkin" is that the best decisions are made when everyone is heard, & respect is given to all.
