ASSINIBOIA — SUMA welcomes new Southwest Regional Director, Town of Assiniboia mayor Sharon Schauenberg.
Along with the SUMA Board of Directors, Schauenberg will be working toward further progress in addressing the challenges that urban municipalities face.
“I became the alternate director last year at the regional meeting that was hosted here in Assiniboia,” Assiniboia’s mayor told the Assiniboia Times and Â鶹´«Ã½.
As a result of the mayor of Shaunavon recently resigning from the position, SUMA approached Schauenberg asking if she was interested in assuming the role, at least until the Nov. 13 election. The role requires the individual to be an elected official to sit on the board.
“I am not too sure what it will entail. I have my first meeting on Sept. 27 in Regina. It will keep me even more busy so being organized helps me a lot,” adds Schauenberg.
The mayor says she is excited for the challenge of representing the Southwest region, allowing her to do even more networking and meeting new people from different towns.
