Meet Your Council
The decision making body for the Summer Village is a municipal Council consisting of three Councilors who were elected in 2021 for a four year term.
A Council is responsible for:
Developing and evaluating the policies and programs of the municipality;
Making sure that the powers, duties and functions of the municipality are appropriately carried out;
Carrying out the powers, duties and functions expressly given to it under the Municipal Government Act or Summer Village Bylaw.
A Council must not exercise a power or function or perform a duty that is by this or another enactment or bylaw specifically assigned to the chief administrative officer or a designated officer.
Tim Evans was born and raised in Athabasca. His family has owned the property at Sunset Beach since 1939. Tim is a permanent resident and has been on council since 2017.
Fred was born in Athabasca in 1951. They moved back to Baptiste Lake 6 years ago to be closer to family. They have been full time residents since then and spend their winters here.
Dan grew up living at Island Lake, went to school in Athabasca, and spent much of his spare time helping on the family farm near 9-mile corner, and making memories at the family property on the west side of Baptiste Lake. After moving around to establish his professional career as a Power Engineer, he and his wife purchased property at Sunset Beach in 2018 and moved to the lake as full-time residents in 2021 to start a family and enjoy the adventures that Lake Life has to offer. As a new council member, Dan strives to continue maintaining our quiet and peaceful atmosphere at the lake, optimizing services and communication as needed, and looking for solutions to community concerns in a practical and reasonable manner. His family intends to be long-term pillars of the community, and he is excited to take on stewardship of our wonderful village to keep it friendly and enjoyable for years to come.
