No More Politics For Catherine Lord

A well-known face on Vernon city council is bowing out of local politics.

Catherine Lord has served two terms on council but says it is time to give up her seat.

Looking back, Lord says she’s proud of how the annual infrastructure levy has helped to modernize the fabric of the city by paying for the reconstruction of Vernon’s roads, sewers and sidewalks.

“The last couple of years particularly, you can see all the construction that’s going on and that is due to that (levy),” Lord told Beach Radio News. “We’re repairing, we’re doing an awful to get Vernon back up to where it should be.”
