Rahim Othman: Candidate for Richmond City Council
9-22-2022
Rahim Othman, a long-time resident of Richmond and active community member, submitted his application to run for City Council in the City of Richmond earlier in September. He is running with the Richmond Community Coalition (RCCA) slate which, the incumbent Chak Au leads. Chak has been a Councillor since 2011 and has been a school trustee before that. Chak has a strong track record in the city council, and Rahim is happy to work with him in this election.
Rahim has been active in the community since he moved to Richmond more than 17 years ago and, since then, has volunteered with several organizations over many years, including the Richmond Civic Engagement Network (RCEN), the BCMA, Richmond Football Club and many others. He is a technology engineer and project/program manager with experience in both the private and public sectors.
RCCA has a robust platform that focuses on strengthening the local economy by keeping municipal taxes low, implementing Consumption Vouchers, and supporting Rent-to-Own housing initiatives to alleviate the housing crisis. The platform also focuses on a greener environment and enhancing the safety and harmony of society.
Rahim and the RCCA slate believe in community engagement. When elected, they will work with stakeholders to address and find solutions to issues and concerns in the city. Rahim and the RCC team will be your representative and advocate on City Council and School Board. Your help is needed to make that happen.
