County of Wellington councillor and Town of Minto Mayor George Bridge, was re-elected to the Federation of Canadian Municipalites (FCM) board of directors for the 2018-2019 term at the federation’s recent annual conference.
Bridge is one of 15 members representing the Ontario Caucus.
The FCM board is made up of elected municipal officials and affiliate members from all regions and communities across Canada. The board meets quarterly to discuss key municipal issues, set policy priorities, and serve as a support system for municipalities bringing forward their messages to the Government of Canada.
“I feel very honoured to be re-elected to the FCM National Board of Directors by my Ontario peers,” said Bridge.
“This is a fantastic opportunity to work with leaders from across the country to address important municipal concerns and contribute to tackling national challenges. I look forward to continuing to advocate for Ontario and Wellington County in this role.”
FCM’s board of directors is comprised of elected municipal officials and affiliate members from all regions and various-sized communities throughout Canada.
It forms a broad base of support and carries the municipal message to the Government of Canada.
