Robert (Bob) Fisher

Colleen Tripp
Vice President
I sit on the Aging In Place Committee where my role is to apply for grants for funding that will improve the lives of the members of City Park. I have every confidence that I can be a strong member on the board. Knowing who my fellow co-op members are, gives me a sense of belonging to a community. That is what makes a co-op strong!
My career as a supervisor of a Child Day Care Centre for 50 children and 25 staff has honed and strengthened my natural interpersonal skills. I understand the importance of being on a team. I learned to think outside the box. I found ways to resolve issues before the problems occurred and I successfully taught conflict resolution. I want to utilize the knowledge and experience I have gained, and I feel sitting on the Board of Directors is a way to do that.
Achira Saad
Corporate Secretary
I have been member of City Park for over 30 years. Being an active member in my co-op is important to me. During this time, I have contributed to Committees, Special Projects and the Board of Directors. Currently I am a member of the Member Selection Committee and for many years have held the positions of Chair and Vice chair. I am also an active member of the Aging in Place Committee where I oversee the Arts and Crafts Programs. For many years I have planned and organized the City Park Volunteer Dinner. Helping to plan and implement the annual election process for City Park is another role that I do. Being on the Board of Directors is another way I have contributed. I have held various positions including Vice Chair, Treasurer, and Corporate Secretary. These roles provided me the opportunity to contribute to my home, City Park as well as learning skills that I can now bring to the Board. I believe City Park is the best place to live and because I feel this way I would like to bring my experience and skills to the Board of Directors.
Deborah Soroka

Jeff Bishop
Director, Liaison to Landscape Committee
I have lived in all three buildings of the complex and am very aware of the beauty and the needs of our community. I have served on several Boards in the past and enjoy it immensely: It is a privilege and a pleasure.
I moved into City Park in 1990 and continue to love it here. I care about it. I also work full time in a social service setting. I have a lot of experience in Housing and Community work.
I have a compassionate heart with a good measure of common sense.
