Award to City from New View Society
Thursday, September 22, 2011
Last night I had the honour of receiving, on behalf of the City, the Dr. Shawna Little Award from New View Society. The award recognizes people or groups who have contributed to New View’s success.
Our City has a long history of working with New View. The first chairperson of the Board of Directors was Mayor Jack Campbell. In the 1980s, staff from the City assisted the society in obtaining lottery funds so that New View could purchase the Lobb House. And over the past 6 years the City has been very helpful, walking New View through the rezoning and development process and I have served as the co-chair of the capital fundraising task force that raised over 4 million dollars.
I will be mentioning this award at our next council meeting.
