Andre Martin is running for City of Penticton councillor.

One of my priorities is to ensure the community takes full advantage of the PRH expansion.

Council can co-ordinate information sessions to ensure that businesses and homeowners are informed of every opportunity and are ready to host the influx of workers. A shortfall of qualified workers may happen as boomers retire and marketing why workers should come to Penticton is a must to attract a strong stable workforce for our employers.

We must also develop a Business Roadshow to tag along with our existing businesses that travel the globe promoting the opportunities and favourable business climate.
