Mayor Tim Wilson

Tim Wilson Profile Picture.png

My name is Tim Wilson. I hold interprovincial licenses in Plumbing, Gas fitting and Steam Fitting. I started in the trades at a very young age as my father was a plumber as well. I took my trade schooling at SAIT, NAIT and Red Deer College.

I worked for several companies before starting my own contracting company in Calgary, where for 23 years we did everything from housing to schools, hospitals, carwashes, dealerships etc.

Fourteen years ago, Jane and I moved to Delburne. We built our house on a large lot that we love along with our dogs. We enjoy gardening, kayaking, playing on the river, hiking and long walks in the country.

During the past fourteen years I have also purchased and renovated the old Delwood windows building as well as the old Catholic Church. We have maintained an affordable space for the Play School to continue in the former Church.

Eight years ago, I went to the village office to see if and how I could contribute. I was asked to consider Council. Thanks Karen. It has been a tremendous learning curve and an exciting challenge. I believe the roll of council is to serve, represent and protect my fellow citizens to the best of my ability and to get government out of the way to create an environment in which people can be successful.

I truly believe our team has made a great start and look forward to continuing to meet these challenges. Five people cannot achieve all these things but as a community we certainly can. When the tide rises all boats float.

Here to serve, Tim Wilson

Councillor Jeff Bourne

Jeff Bourne Profile Picture.png

Hello. I am Jeff Bourne.  My wife Cheryle and I have lived in Delburne for the last 26 years. We have three beautiful daughters who grew up here. We loved raising our family in Delburne. I have worked, coached, volunteered and lived my life in this great Village. I have served four previous terms on council and gained valuable experience during those years as a Councillor.

This community has so much to offer and we need Council to take an active role in promoting Delburne. I believe, as Council, we must ensure a safe and caring community for all our residents. I would like to see businesses succeed and grow, both in size and number. Council has a real responsibility to support existing businesses and to promote business growth.

Together, we can accomplish many things and have much to be proud of. There remains more work to be done to address the challenges we face and to realize our full community potential.  I look forward to working for you through these next four years!

Councillor Kathy Faulk

Hello Fellow Citizens of Delburne.

I would like to tell you a bit about myself. My name is Kathy Faulk and am here to support you in the next four years as one of your councillors. This will be my third term on council.

Your voice & concerns are important to me, as it is the best way to serve you in Village matters. It is my goal to meet the needs of the community as a whole. It takes time to build a stronger better community, and see a vision become a reality.

I have had the honour of serving on several boards and committees, in a council capacity, as well as a volunteer. To name a few of the boards I had the honor to be a part of are, Parkland Foundation, FCSS, the Chamber of Commerce, the Delburne community garden, community kitchen & cooking with seniors, the hall board, the drop-in center, charity golf tournament, Charity check stop, Delburne food bank & through FCSS I offered my services as a tax pro for seniors & low-income families in the community.

I am a member of the Royal Purple and attend the Gospel Church.

I feel we have a responsibility to respect and provide more support for our seniors in our community, after all they are the founders to whom we owe a gratitude.

I take pride in all I do and feel it takes a whole community to come together to build a sustainable today and a prosperous future.

Together we are a team, and our vision can become a reality!

Your voice and Councillor, Kathy Faulk
