Picture
     City of Bellingham's commitment to make a difference regarding "climate change" has grown substantially over the years, since former mayor Kelli Linville served.  Many of us have heard that the city recently adopted a plan promoting (and in some cases requiring) the private sector's 'shift to electric' to end the use of fossil-fuels for heating systems, appliances, and even vehicles over time.  BIAWC has been following this issue closely as it must regarding changes to building codes. Rob has been communicating with the various energy providers who must anticipate shifts in demand. This is a very important issue to learn about, so don't miss this informative program.  Bring a guest, bring questions.  Visit the City's "switch" page ahead by clicking here.
     Bio:  Rob and his wife Val have been Whatcom County residents since 1995. They have raised their three kids (Forrest 28, Sierra 25, and Mackenzie 23) here while serving as the Director of Camp and Retreat Ministries for The Firs/Camp Firwood. Val is a Bellingham native, graduated from BHS class of 1982, Rob grew up in the Lower Mainland (Yep, he is Canadian). Rob is a current member and a two-time past President of the Sunrise Rotary Club of Bellingham and currently serves on the Board of Directors of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Whatcom County. They love to golf together and fly fish when they can. They are thrilled to serve the membership of the BIAWC.
