Kamloops mayoral candidates outline priorities ahead of fall by-election
KAMLOOPS — A week after Peter Milobar announced he will resign as the mayor after nine years, two candidates, current city councillor Ken Christian and TRU science professor Cindy Ross Friedman, have put their names forward.
Christian has been at City Hall since 2011, now in his second term as a city councillor. But even if he becomes the mayor for a short one-year term, Christian says he won’t be tinkering with city business too much.
“We only really have one year left on this term, and I don’t think it’s time to reinvest the vision,” said Christian. “I think we have a good strategic plan. I think we’ve done good work thus far. I just want to be a steady hand on the tiller while we complete this term.”
