From the City of Quesnel:
Quesnel Mayor Mary Sjostrom will begin a seventh year on the Union of British Columbia Municipalities Board, having been elected this year as second Vice-President. Sjostrom has served six years on the Board, two as the North Central Municipal Association president, three as director-at-large and one as third vice-president.
“It’s an honour to have my peers in local government from across British Columbia continue to place their trust in me as a member of the UBCM executive,” said Sjostrom. “As a Board member I have the opportunity to work with senior government officials while helping keep Quesnel City Council and our residents abreast of trends and issues that are of interest or concern at the provincial level. It’s an advantage for Quesnel to be represented on the UBCM Board.”
Sjostrom was a representative on the Local Government Task Force in 2010 and also chairs the Off Road Vehicle Working Group. She was chair of the Community Economic Development Committee in 2009. She was also a member of the Convention Committee and a member of the Presidents Committee. In previous years she has held a number of positions, including: Resolutions Committee member, Convention Committee vice-chair; Tourism Advisory Committee chair; and Small Communities Policing Task Force member.
This year’s UBCM annual convention is in Whistler and runs from Sept. 27 to Oct. 1.
