There will be at least four new commissioners

There will be at least four and up to six new commissioners after the November elections – Commissioners Cameron, Enns, Nokleby and Woodrow are not running in the upcoming election.

On the Cultus Lake side, where two commissioners are elected to the board, there were two candidates – Commissioner Charlotte Hall and Lawrence (Larry) Payeur. They will be acclaimed to office and presumably their election expenses will be quite low this season. I have already called both to congratulate them.

On the Chilliwack side, on the incumbents side are both myself and Commissioner Owen Skonberg. Other candidates are Scott Allinott, Bob McCrea, Austin Ross, Malcolm Shanks and Carlton Toews. There are seven candidates running for five seats.
