Rocky View County Council held its annual organizational meeting to elect a Reeve and Deputy Reeve and make appointments to positions on a number of boards and committees.
The meeting began with the selection by Council of Division 6 Councillor Greg Boehlke as Reeve for a fourth consecutive term, and Division 4 Councillor Al Schule as Deputy Reeve for a second consecutive term. Under the County’s system, councillors elect a reeve and deputy reeve each year from their ranks. The reeve serves as head of Council, and chairs Council meetings.
Councillor Jerry Gautreau was elected as chair of Council’s Governance and Priorities Committee and Councillor Kim McKylor was elected as Vice Chair.
Council also appointed councillors and public members to various boards and committees. The available positions were advertised in advance, and Council reviewed resumes and applications ahead of Tuesday’s vote.
