City Council Liaisons:

Geoff Meggs
City Council Liaison

Geoff Meggs was elected to City Council in November 2008 on the Vision Vancouver team led by Gregor Robertson. He is committed to working for a city in which eliminating homelessness, creating affordable housing and expanding quality public transit are priorities, and believes that if you work in Vancouver, you should be able to live in Vancouver. Geoff is an award-winning journalist and author whose career has combined community and social activism with senior leadership positions in government and the labour movement.

Andrea Reimer
City Council Liaison

In 2008 Andrea left the Green Party to support Gregor Robertson's bid for mayor, co-chairing his campaign to be nominated for Vision Vancouver and was elected herself to City Council in November 2008. She ran on a campaign of three big ideas: Greenest City on Earth, a City of Compassion and Opportunity and a City of Strong Neighbourhoods.

Karen Levitt
Staff Liaison

Karen is the Director of Business Planning Secretariat at the City of Vancouver. The Business Planning Secretariat was created in April 2008 to take responsibility for the City’s corporate business planning and business support services. The Secretariat reports to the General Manager and takes direction from the Business Planning Committee, a senior management committee that is co-chaired by the two Deputy City Managers.

The Secretariat’s primary responsibilities are corporate business planning, business, economic, policy and strategy resourcing and relationship management.
