The CEO of TransLink is coming to Maple Ridge as the Chamber of Commerce Serving Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows hosts Kevin Quinn at the upcoming general meeting event.

These quarterly meetings are a time for both chamber members and non-members to gather together and listen to reports from the president, treasurer, and executive director. But this time, attendees will also hear from Quinn as he discusses the future of transportation in Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows.

Following lunch, Quinn will take the stage and speak for approximately 45 minutes. The meeting will then end with the general meeting being called to order at 12:45 p.m. and adjourned at 1 p.m.

However, Kristi Maier, executive director of the chamber, warns that this event might not end up happening at all.

“Attendance is quite low for this event so far, and if we don’t get enough people, we might have to cancel it,” she said.
