Mayor-elect left with no time to dawdle
ElEction: Andy Adams has to get right to work after winning mayor’s seat on Saturday Kristen Douglas Campbell RiveR miRRoR
It’s been only four days since Andy Adams learned he will become Campbell River’s new mayor, but already the three-term councillor has to get down to business. Adams said with the municipal election being in mid-November that doesn’t leave council – which will be full of new faces – with much time to identify its strategic priorities and prepare for financial planning which usually begins in December. “With the election being late in the year, the timeframe for strategic planning and financial planning is really compressed so we need to bond the team very quickly and get to work,” Adams said. The veteran councillor, who has served nine years on Campbell River council, gave up his councillor seat to take a run at the mayor’s chair. The risk paid off Saturday when Adams was elected mayor, garnering 4,370 votes. Adams unseated current mayor Walter Jakeway who finished second with 4,249 votes. Steve Wood came third in the mayoral race with 598 votes. At an election reception at Seymour Pacific Saturday night, after Adams learned his fate, the mayorelect thanked all of those who ran for council, and specifically thanked
