Barbara Price is running for Comox council.

“I want to make sure that the interests of the people of Comox come first. If we are to have a truly accountable Town Hall, people must know that their voice matters.”

For 15 years, Price has served as a local politician, both on the regional district board and Comox council. “I come with a record of listening and keeping taxes down.”

Price worked as a city planner before raising a family. Now she cares for her aging father, is starting a business and continues as an active volunteer. She has served on many boards and committees, ranging from community and environmental health to transportation, affordable housing and the economy

As president of the Comox Archives and Museum, she spearheaded the move of the Pearl Ellis Gallery and Comox Archives and Museum to their new street-front location, enhancing both Comox arts and culture and the downtown business district.

She works to preserve Comox’s special places.
