In 2024, a group of concerned long-time Langley City citizens met to discuss the future of our community. Our goal was to ensure that Langley City continues to move forward, looking out for the safety of residents and growth for businesses from an accountable and effective local government.
“Seeing what was going on with politics in Langley, we wanted to ensure that Langley City remains an independent community,” said Rhianna Reddekopp, who founded Langley City First and is a long-time City resident and small business owner. “We want to make sure that every nickel of taxpayer money gets reinvested back into our community efficiently and effectively to address the priorities that make Langley City a unique community.”
Langley City First was formed as a Local Elector Organization under Elections BC to defend the things that make Langley City our home, and move our community forward. We believe in bringing independent voices to lead our community with strong community connections and responsible decision-making. We believe in a safe and prosperous Langley City, and in people who believe in our community, free of outside interference and partisan politics.
“With these values in mind, we reached out to several members of Langley City Council,” said Reddekopp, “We are proud to announce that Mayor Nathan Pachal, Councillors Paul Albrecht, Mike Solyom, and Rosemary Wallace are willing to be endorsed by our organization.”
As a registered Elector Organization, we hope to provide a united team in this fall's civic elections that is committed to defending and advancing the following values:
Building A City for the Future
Enhancing Green Space
Investing in Safety and Livability
Fostering Community Connection
Creating a Resilient Community with Appropriate Infrastructure and Responsible Fiscal Stewardship
Supporting a Team Where Independent Voices Work as a Cohesive Team
Langley City First believes in our community, its people, its businesses, and its potential, and we are committed to moving the city forward through collaborative leadership, safe communities, and responsible growth for today and future generations. We are excited to endorse our first candidates and look forward to announcing more in the coming months.
