The Regional District Central Okanagan (RDCO) will spend $32,110 to send directors to various conferences and conventions in 2025. 

Included in the eight events throughout the year are major conventions such as the Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM) in Ottawa, and the Union of BC Municipalities (UBCM) in Victoria. Most events will be attended by one RDCO board director, except the FCM and UBCM, which will both be attended by two directors.

Central Okanagan West Director Wayne Carson questioned why one specific conference was split into two separate events.

Staff told the board it had not been notified why the change had been made.

All registration fees, hotels and transportation for the conferences are estimates only as of Sept. 9, 2024.
