#33 - OFOC and Mayor Tom Dyas
-

Written by:
Kelowna Mayor Tom Dyas joins the One Foot Off Center panel to make his case for a second term ahead of the October 17 election. Dyas walks through his record: restructured city finances, accelerated road and infrastructure projects, more RCMP, bylaw and fire staff, and a drop in the city's crime severity ranking. He's candid about his regrets, including the downtown outreach centre and the Rutland social services office, and explains why mandatory care is a provincial decision, not the city's. The panel presses him on construction fatigue, unemployment, homelessness spending, and business owners who have stopped reporting crime. Dyas also lays out plans for the airport's East Lands, new detox beds for Kelowna, and how he builds consensus with council and staff.
