Local Government

This is my chance to introduce you to-the fine people of Carleton Victoria. People who are tied to the land through farming and forests, the water through its rivers, lakes and waterfalls; to their ancestors through their history and devotion to the many communities which are spread through its valleys.

With the arrival of local governance reform, a lot of attention has been paid to name changes. Regardless of the titles of the regional entities we will never lose our community identities. The villages and towns we have grown up in and raised our families in retain their original names and unique flavours.

Western Valley Regional Service Commission

The Western Valley Regional Service Commission, a body corporate, was established in January 1, 2013.  WVRSC is a consolidation of the former Rural District Planning Commission and the Valley Solid Waste Commission.  The Regional Service Delivery model stems from the Government of New Brunswick Action Plan for a New Local Governance System in New Brunswick (2011).
