City council has appointed 5 people to the Thompson Unlimited Board of Directors.

Randy McKay, Curtis Ross, Robert Johnston, Glen Kristjanson, and Brock Weir will be serving on the board for three years.

Councilor Judy Kolada and Duncan Wong abstained when council voted to appoint the board because they disagreed with the process of how the members were chosen. Kolada said councilors should have been provided with bios of those who applied, or at the very least, the decision should have been discussed by a committee.

Thomson Unlimited is a community corporation that promotes investment and redevelopment opportunities in the City.
