Steering Committee

2026 Steering Committee

At Transition Sooke’s 2025 Annual General Meeting held on March 11, 2026, the following members were elected to the Steering Committee of the Sooke Transition Town Society (Transition Sooke):

  • David Merner
  • Paula Johanson
  • Lily Mah-Sen
  • Keith Rimstad
  • Ed Fisher
  • Susan Belford

The Steering Committee oversees the organization, manages affairs and ensures that different tasks are done. Unlike many societies, decisions at Transition Sooke are made by the Active Members, and not by the Steering Committee. At the March 19, 2022 AGM, members approved new bylaws that reflect our organizational structure. Those bylaws were approved by the Societies Branch and are posted here.

The bylaws of the Society designate four officers on the Steering Committee — Co-ordinator, Secretary, Treasurer, and Communications. Duties of those officers can be found here.

Meetings of the Steering Committee are open to all active members of Transition Sooke. Contact us to find out the date and time of the next meeting.

Notes of previous meetings are posted here.
