Nominations invited for RCMP contract management committee


Publishing Date

UBCM is seeking to appoint local government representatives from RCMP policed jurisdictions to the Local Government Contract Management Committee (LGCMC). There are currently two vacancies to be filled by local government elected officials or staff members.

The Committee consists of up to ten representatives from local governments policed by the RCMP. The following categories require local government appointments:

  • Community with population over 15,000, from the Lower Mainland RCMP District, and within the Metro Vancouver Regional District (1 representative, for a term ending in December 2026);
  • Community with population over 5,000 (1 representative, for a term ending in December 2026).

The Local Government Contract Management Committee is a forum for consultation, analysis and communication between local governments and the Province regarding the management of the Police Services Agreements under which the RCMP provide policing services in BC.

The Committee will hold at least four meetings per year, to be held virtually or in-person. Elected officials shall be reimbursed for out-of-pocket expenses, in accordance with UBCM policy.

Interested parties may contact Bhar Sihota, UBCM Senior Policy Analyst, by September 5, 2025. The UBCM Executive will consider LGCMC nominations at an upcoming meeting.
