Reviews of Campbell River City Hall (Translator)

The majority of staff are typical city workers. Don't expect them to work overtime! However Brian Marcel, supervisor in building department, has gone above and beyond the Call of Duty to assist me and educate me in the navigation of City bylaws. I truly appreciate a civil servant doing what most people would do in the private sector. Thanks a lot! Please keep in mind these are civil servants and they are mostly only going to do the bare minimum however the individual I have mentioned in this review has proved himself to be an excellent member of this city hall. Ps. Also a few years ago I had a one-on-one meeting with the current Campbell River mayor he was also very helpful!

The staff in both the planning and building department are very knowledgeable and awesome to deal with. As a residential designer, the local municipality for each jurisdiction we design in (in this case the campbell river municipality) play a key role during the design process for each design we do. Jennifer Barber, Ruth and Erin have been a great help on my projects!!

A city council that prides itself on its budgeting prowess, through relentless taxation of its residential citizens every year. Conflict of interest is rampant in city hall, just look at the million dollar fire truck purchased through the actions of having a former fire chief sitting in the chambers (money well spent considering there are only two buildings in the whole city that require a ladder truck of that size). Our blissfully ignorant taxpayer funded council makes sure they receive consistent raises while empty storefronts and overpriced housing/rentals take hold around them, leaving residents to fight just to afford food and a place to lay their head. Red tape is abound for any individuals (aside from large corporations of course!) looking to start a simple business in this town. Thinking of moving here soon? Get ready to add rapidly rising Hydro / ICBC rates to your list of monthly payments, along with forking over your hard earned money to pay for a massive ocean front "mall" that a population of 30,000 people doesn't even need. Empty storefronts all over the place, but a mall seems like a great idea! All in all, if you enjoy over-taxation and watching an old / outdated city council grab whatever they can to make sure their own are taken care of, this is the town for you! Rest in Peace Campbell River, you had such potential.
