SURREY- Mayor Doug McCallum recently visited Progressive Intercultural Community Services (PICS) Society to help celebrate the society’s 34th anniversary by unveiling a picture plaque in honour of the late Charanpal Singh Gill, the “Founder and Founding CEO” of PICS Society.
During his visit, the mayor especially asked about the progress of PICS’ latest community project, the Guru Nanak Diversity Village, a 3-storey, 125 bed long-term residential care facility for the South-Asian community which is currently in the pre-construction phase. When completed, the facility will provide culturally-sensitive care to our seniors and also bring approximately 125 new employment opportunities in the City.
The mayor assured PICS Society that he will ask the City Council and City Planners to fast-track the BP and DP approval process so that the important community project is completed on time and our seniors can avail the services. PICS President and CEO, Satbir Cheema thanked the mayor for his ongoing support for this worthwhile community project.
