The plan is to have a meeting at the school once a month to discuss issues and possibly have a student represented at the next municipal meeting.
The first meeting, held on March 14, included 12 students and featured discussions on issues affecting the community.
Major issues identified included the Summerland Aquatic Centre and the roads.
The pool is past its life and it would cost around $3 million to build a new one. Summerland council would have to get a grant for it and taxes would increase
The road issues that were brought up were for Giants Head Road. There are plans for the road to be improved. The estimated cost of the road work is around $6 million because improvements to the water system would also be needed.
The pipes in the area were installed from around 1910 to 1930.
