Mayor Terry Rysz and Sicamous council members have approved a list of eight infrastructure strategic objectives and organization goals.

“We’re putting everything on the table and within the next month we will prioritize and work at them one by one until we tick each one off,” he said last week following the committee of the whole meeting. “We have four years and we’ve got a lot to accomplish.”

The strategic plan includes planning for and funding community infrastructure maintenance, encouraging and supporting business and property development and tourism, attracting families to thrive and grow in Sicamous, taking a proactive approach to the community and natural environment, making sure the district continues to run well, continuing to improve internal and external communication and advocating for such things as improvements to highway infrastructure.

 

“This is a draft based on where we were with the previous council and a lot of things our council wants to accomplish,” said Rysz.
