Greetings from the council and staff at the District of Kent. The mayor and council have the long term objective of not only expanding and improving the infrastructure for the service area but also intends to beautify the townsite of Agassiz. With the assistance of staff it encourages its citizens to take pride in the appearance of their properties and the surrounding areas. With the collaboration of volunteer groups such as Communities in Bloom, the Garden Club and the Community Gardens, the townsite is kept attractive and provides a source of food and recreation for the gardeners in the community. Local businesses have collaborated with District staff in maintaining the planters and hanging baskets which provide summer colours to the area. Activities such as the Pioneer Park Twilight Series, the Movie in the Park evenings sponsored by Prospera Credit Union, the Canada Day celebrations and the summer’s Thursday Agassiz Farm Fresh Market all provide occasions for entertainment and recreation. Lorne Fisher, Mayor of the District off Kent
