According to annual financial reports, the TNRD paid Nandi’s about $45,000 in 2018. Five years’ worth of purchases on Gill’s TNRD credit card show about $24,000 charged at the restaurant, most often on a Thursday or Friday night and including both TNRD staff and board directors.

TNRD to decide how to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars in pandemic relief funding

The TNRD Building is also home to the Kamloops Art Gallery and Kamloops Library. The board is recommending deferral of a decision until the fall. The decision will be ratified at a future meeting. The recommendation was carried unanimously. TNRD area I (Blue Sky Country) director Steven Rice questioned why COVID-19 relief funds would be used in such a scenario, noting the optics. TNRD CAO Scott Hildebrand said the regional district spends $4,000 monthly renting space at Sandman Centre to host meetings during the pandemic, noting the regional district is growing, necessitating a new multi-use meeting space post-pandemic. The proposed plan is to build a multi-purpose meeting space on the second floor of the library for use by the board and library. In addition, it would be rented out to external groups/committees as a way to generate revenue.

Cache Creek mayor, political watchdog question TNRD financial review process

Reached by KTW, Talarico said he is in favour of a financial review or audit in principle, but thinks the optics of the board setting out terms of the review will render the results unacceptable to the public. He said the goal should be instilling confidence in the regional district. “The board should be as transparent as possible,” Talarico said. “We’ve used that term often in the last few weeks and, in my opinion, the only way to be totally transparent is to have an independent outside group put the criteria together, which they feel is important to the people in the regional district and oversee the review, not the regional district.”
