Executive

UBCM held its first full quarterly meeting with the 2025-2026 Executive Board members on November 13-14, welcoming new and returning members. Executive members made decisions on all 57 resolutions that didn’t make it to the floor at 2025 Convention – see the full table below. Executive met with ministers Brittny Anderson and Christine Boyle to discuss several matters, including the Okanagan Falls incorporation process, regional district legislative reform, and the potential impact of bill M216 – Professional Reliance Act on local governments.

Elections for the 2025-26 Executive are in process; seven positions have been decided. 

The next President of UBCM will be Councillor Cori Ramsay (Prince George). Councillor Jenna Stoner (Squamish), Mayor Sarrah Storey (Fraser Lake), and Councillor Aimee Grice (Oliver) will be the First, Second and Third Vice Presidents respectively. 

The UBCM Executive held its quarterly Executive meeting in Richmond February 20-21, 2025. It was the first opportunity for the full UBCM Executive to meet with provincial Ministers newly responsible for local government affairs. We look forward to productive collaboration with the Honourable Ravi Kahlon, Minister of Housing and Municipal Affairs, and the Honourable Brittny Anderson, Minister of State for Local Governments and Rural Communities on priority issues including housing, local government finance, addressing impacts of tariff on BC communities and more. 

The Executive of the Union of BC Municipalities held its quarterly meeting November 13-15 in Richmond. With the provincial cabinet now established, UBCM’s advocacy remains focused on new provincial funding to support infrastructure; affordable housing and homelessness; and climate action and emergency management. 

With thanks to all the nominees, UBCM is pleased to present your 2024 Executive team:
