Another student from A.E. Peacock Collegiate is set to join the City of Moose Jaw’s Youth Advisory Committee.

During its Oct. 28 regular meeting, city council approved a motion to appoint Peacock student Liam Vargo to the committee as a youth-at-large representative. His appointment commences immediately and will conclude on June 30, 2020.

Council made its initial appointments to the committee during its regular meeting on Sept. 9. City hall then received an application on Oct. 10 from Vargo for an appointment to the Youth Advisory Committee.

The committee is composed of one member of city council and two students from the following schools:

Prairie South School Division    

  • Central Collegiate
  • Cornerstone Christian School
  • Peacock Collegiate
  • Riverview Collegiate

Holy Trinity Catholic School Division

  • Vanier Collegiate

École Ducharme School
Saskatchewan Polytechnic


Up to four extra youth-at-large representatives aged 18 to 25 who are not students from schools currently represented on the committee can also be appointed. Since there is one youth-at-large representative from Peacock Collegiate already on the committee, it is acceptable for council to appoint a second applicant to the committee, according to a report from city administration.

The next regular meeting is Tuesday, Nov. 12.
