Accomplishments
The Town of Craik was under a boiled water advisory for 10 years when I became administrator for the town. I applied for a 1.4 million dollar provincial and federal grant to assist in funding our Water Treatment Plant Project. The plant was inoperable due to the company that built our previous plant going financially bankrupt and our surface source of water being too hard to treat.
