CHILLIWACK — A versatile business leader and entrepreneur with a long history in Chilliwack will run for a seat on the Chilliwack City Council this fall.
Local business leader and lifelong Chilliwack resident Nicole Huitema Read announced Tuesday (Sept. 6) her run for one of the six seats to be filled on Chilliwack City Council in this fall’s election.
Huitema Read is the general manager of Community Futures South Fraser, an organization that works collaboratively with Chilliwack’s Economic Resource Network. Together with their local partners the group has injected millions of dollars towards the long-term growth of Chilliwack, helping make the city a great place to live and work. Prior to joining Community Futures, she and her husband spent the last 25 years owning and operating multiple Chilliwack businesses.
“I opened my first company at the age of 25 and never looked back,” Huitema Read said. “After 25 years of starting and developing my own businesses, I now have the opportunity to support other local entrepreneurs who are working hard to make our city a richer, more diverse place to live.”
