I have demonstrated initiative and commitment. I have researched the job and I know that I have a solid understanding of the RDEK process – yes, I really do!
I have;
attended committee meetings and board meetings since June
met with LeeAnn Crane, Chief Administrator Officer for RDEK, who has pointed me in the right direction several times
met with Loree Duczek, Communications Manager for RDEK, learning everything you want to know about recycling … and more
met with Andrew McLeod, Manager of Planning and Development to review all of the planned projects that are in progress for the entire region
toured the Columbia Valley Landfill Site with Eric Sharpe, the Manager of Environmental Services
had an informative meeting with Bill Bennett the MLA for East Kootenay
discussed issues with Norm MacDonald the MLA for Columbia River/Revelstoke
met the current Mayor of Revelstoke and Liberal candidate for Columbia River/Revelstoke, Mark McKee
I have met with business leaders across the region, community groups, caffeine-seeking citizens at local coffee shops … pretty much anyone that will give me the time of day … and I continue to do so! I believe this has been time well spent.
