NEW POSITION: City of Powell River chief administrative officer Lisa Bhopalsingh will be moving on from her position with the city, returning to Nanaimo, where she was previously employed by that Vancouver Island city.

City of Powell River chief administrative officer Lisa Bhopalsingh has accepted a position with City of Nanaimo and will be leaving her employ here.

At the March 6 city council meeting, mayor Ron Woznow said that unfortunately, he had to advise that the city’s chief administrative officer has accepted a position with another local government and will be leaving her current position.

“We thank Lisa for her service to the city and wish her the very best with her new endeavours,” said Woznow. “Council will begin the process of filling this important role prior to Lisa’s departure on April 17.”

Bhopalsingh was hired by City of Powell River in September 2023.
