City invites residents to attend “State of the City” event

In an effort to open up communications between community leaders and the municipality, the City of Grande Prairie is hosting an event featuring a number of panelists from around the city to discuss the current state of the city.

“State of the City: Grander Conversations” will feature numerous city representatives such as City of Grande Prairie CAO Shane Bourke, NWP President Dr. Vannessa Sheane, Chamber of Commerce CEO Tanya Oliver, and Grande Prairie Police Service Superintendent John Respet.

The City says the event will be conversational in nature, and presents attendees with the opportunity to learn more about emerging trends and outlooks in the community, all moderated by Mayor Jackie Clayton.

Clayton says she is excited to host the event as it gives a fresh perspective for community members to find out what is happening in the city directly from people “on the front lines.”

“Grande Prairie is a diverse city, an economic leader, and the hub of our region, and the State of the City: Grander Conversations event is our opportunity to share the community stories behind this success, and look forward together on what our future can bring,” she says.

Additionally, the city says the 2023 Annual Report will also be launched at the event.

The event is scheduled for March 26th from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at the Theresa Sargent Hall in Montrose Cultural Centre and tickets are available for $40 online through  Bonnetts Energy Centre.
