Neis says she believes Premier Christy Clark has the right focus with a 'Families First' philosophy and believes that approach can work in West Kelowna. "We all want the same things. We all want a community that's safe, that we can afford to live in, that provides a future for our children and I think sometimes those things get missed. Really focus on the people that live here. we don't have every amenity known to man just because it's out there." She says that is the type of leadership she hopes to bring. Neis was an unknown political entity when she vaulted onto the scene four years ago. Running on a platform of disincorporation, Neis won a five person race to become the first mayor of the newly incorporated municipality. One year later in the first three term municipal election, Neis again topped the polls, winning one of six Councillor seats. Neis says the municipality has changed dramatically since she last served as mayor. She says in a lot of ways the municipality is now run by city employees who are "very good at what they do."
