The time I spent meeting with the @RDCOkanagan today was so valuable. I am glad to see their commitment toward reconciliation with @westbankfn. It was my pleasure to see @loyalkelowna, and to meet Councillor Jordan Coble of Westbank First Nation.
It was great to meet up with Kevin Kraft, elected Director for Central Okanagan East (representing areas including Ellison and Joe Rich) at @RDCOkanagan, to hear what is important to him and discuss mutual priorities.
The inaugural board meeting of the @RDCOkanagan has been held and Kelowna director Loyal Wooldridge is chair and West Kelowna director Gord Milsom is vice-chair. The board consists of four municipalities, two electoral areas and @westbankfn
