Dave Willie seeks Qualicum Beach Council seat


Dave Willie for Qualicum Beach Council

QUALICUM BEACH – Thursday, October 13, 2011 Long time Qualicum Beach resident Dave Willie announced his intention to seek a seat on the Qualicum Beach town council today.

“I will work hard to ensure that property taxes and the cost of services are kept down. We need to make sure that Qualicum Beach is an affordable community for all age groups,” said Willie. He also knows that water and health care are among the many important issues that the town council must continue to deal with in the next term.

“First and foremost however, we need to be absolutely sure that the high school stays in Qualicum Beach. That is my first priority,” said Willie.

Dave’s roots in the community run deep. He and his wife Jayne moved to Qualicum Beach over 20 years ago and have raised three children in the community. “The small town atmosphere and progressive attitude attracted us to Qualicum Beach,” said Willie. He and his wife operated Whitley House Bed & Breakfast for thirteen years, hosting countless weddings and other community events there. Dave has been a Qualicum Beach Rotary Club member for twenty years, and while his children were growing up, was heavily involved in the Kwalikum Secondary School music program, chaperoning students on band field trips and participating in fundraising activities. He also served as President of the Qualicum Beach Chamber of Commerce, and was founding President of the Bard to Broadway Theatre Society.

Dave and Jayne currently live in Qualicum Beach’s village core and are co-owners of Black & White Special Event Rentals.
