Too soon to talk interim mayors: Singh
KAMLOOPS — Councillor Arjun Singh says it’s too soon to talk about whether he would be open to serving as interim mayor, in case Peter Milobar is elected to represent Kamloops-North Thompson in next spring’s provincial election.
Singh was quoted in Kamloops This Week saying he has been approached by fellow councillors to serve in the role.
Speaking to CFJC News, Singh says it’s far too soon to even have the discussion, and he wants to ensure council has a chance to sit down and talk about it.
“Very early days. I mean, the article in Kamloops This Week I think was a bit premature for sure,” said Singh, adding “we haven’t had the discussion formally as a council yet. We have had some coffee chats amongst some of us, about what might or might not happen. Look, we need to sit down as a council and discuss this thing.”
