Chantelle Parrott is the new Economic Development Officer for Minnedosa.
According to Parrott, population growth is a major priority of her's moving forward.
"With kind of the nature of the population distribution as it is, we do have a higher percentage of... retirement population and an aging population, so for myself I think... focusing on some of the resources and challenges right now for young families and for young people maybe looking at Minnedosa as a place to come to or relocate."
Parrott takes over for Vern May. May says with Parrott at the helm,"you'll forget about the last guy that was here in no time at all."
