Vanderhoof Mayor, Gerry Thiessen says it was an overall good year for Vanderhoof despite facing pandemic-related challenges.
While provincial guidelines have put stress on Vanderhoof residents, Thiessen says a couple of sectors in the community managed to thrive with the help of some projects throughout the year.
“We were quite excited in January, we had Coastal Gaslink coming to town at the Airport and it came simultaneously on the fact that lumber prices were incredibly low,” said Thiessen.
However, this project was supposed to start around the beginning of the pandemic, which caused things to slow down dramatically in Vanderhoof.
