Youth and Ambition. These are the two qualities Adam Casemore says sets him apart from his competitors in his race for the Regional Director job in Rural Area C.
Casemore says he will follow in the footsteps as soon-to-be former Director Larry Binks by hosting quarterly town hall meetings and engaging residents in the area to establish a two way relationship.
Though Casemore is a business owner, he says it will not impede on his civic duty.
“I’m able to leave at a moment’s notice. So it’s not like I own a shop or a store where I’m obligated to be there. it gives me the flexibility to leave at a moment’s notice and be able to balance and plan a schedule. if there’s anything that arises that needs to be addressed immediately, I have the flexibility to attend to that.”
Moving away from the town, Adam Casemore is leaving his council seat open in Creston to pursue the role of Director in Area C.
Casemore says he understands the needs of the area and supports development within boundaries.
“It all depends on the circumstances and the property. I mean, I’m not going to deter anybody from pursuing development but the ideal development would not be to urbanize the rural area.”
Casemore details his support for expansion by the means of clearing forested land and building infrastructure as long as it doesn’t impede or violate people’s privacy.
Area C residents voiced a variety concerns to Casemore at a public forum held two weeks ago in West Creston and Casemore said he is willing to listen and work closely with constituents if elected.
