Yes October 26 will see the residents of Burquitlam, along with the rest of Coquitlam, go to the polls to vote for a couple of new council members.
From the Tri-City News
In an early Tuesday morning vote at a meeting that started Monday
evening — and with no debate on the topic — city council formally set
the byelection date and appointed deputy city clerk Kerri Lore as the
chief election officer and Lauren Hewson, the manager of information,
privacy and administrative services, as deputy chief election officer,
effective Aug. 12.
So far one person that we know of has put their name forward.
But where is the representation for Burquitlam? We badly need someone in our corner as evidenced by the Foster "Fiasco".
Watch for local All Candidate's meetings and let's get in there and ask some tough questions.
Burquitlam is a community in Coquitlam, BC, which is a suburb in the metro Vancouver area. Burquitlam is slated to be one of the new stations on the Evergreen Line which will undoubtedly impact the community. Burquitlam is boundaried by North Road on the West, Chapman Ave on the North, Blue Mountain on the East and Hwy 1 on the South. The image is an artist rendering of the proposed station and will be replaced with the real one when that happens.
