New members for McBride Community Forest board
Two new board members have been appointed to the interim board for the McBride Community Forest Corporation. Randy McFarland and Joseph Rich were appointed to two vacant seats on the board during its Feb 19th meeting. Mayor Loranne Martin says several members of the public have expressed their interest in becoming a director, and McFarland and Rich bring a wealth of forestry experience, local knowledge and business experience to the MCFC table. Both are also members of the advisory committee set up to help the board evaluate the potential deal to purchase volume from Carrier Lumber. Martin says Councillor Ralph Bezanson had indicated he wished to step down from the MCFC board, saying he wanted to have more public involvement and more knowledgeable members who are willing to move the community forest forward.
