Irene Perepolkin is the area D director (rural Grand Forks) for the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary.

As this is my first term as Director there was a lot to learn about the position and about the workings of politics. I sat on many committees throughout the year representing my area. The Boundary economic development committee (BEDC) meets monthly and works to encourage development of all the Boundary areas.
