The next Electoral Area Directors’ (EAD) Forum will be held on February 4 and 5, 2020 at the Radisson Vancouver Airport Hotel in Richmond, BC. Hotel reservations are now available via phone (604.279.8384) or email under the UBCM/LGLA block until January 6, 2020.
The EAD Forum focuses on issues of concern to electoral area directors and provides an opportunity to discuss common problems and share potential solutions to the problems identified. The conference is open to electoral area directors and their alternates, regional district chairs, and regional district staff.
Director Grace McGregor, Electoral Area Representative on the UBCM Executive, will work with staff to build the agenda around matters of current concern to those representing electoral areas. In addition, Electoral Area Directors can submit their own ideas or examples of best practices for discussion at the forum. Please submit your suggested Forum topics by November 22.
The Local Government Leadership Academy Forum is scheduled immediately after the EAD forum, from February 5-7, help reduce costs and provide an opportunity for delegates to attend both learning events.
Information on registration will be provided in next week’s Compass.
