Purpose: The mandate for the non-resident property owners’ advisory body is to advise council on how to engage non-resident property owners in any public consultation or approval process.

Members of the Non-resident Advisory Body are:

  • Ben Campbell-Barry
  • Jonathan Elsley
  • Kit Kuhn
  • September Kuromi
  • Julie Kimmel - Councillor

Objectives:

Certain municipal processes (e.g., adoption of the Official Community Plan, Financial Plan, and annual adoption budget bylaw) require that municipal council meet the legislative minimum for consultation. In addition, there is a wide range of municipal processes that require public notice. The advisory body should come up with ways on how best to engage those people who do not make Sun Peaks their home in municipal matters.
